Issue confirmed here, on a dual 750 Mhz PIII Celeron. Starting the 
latency test, the NMI watchdog pulls the break on cpu #0 after a few us, 
albeit rthal_nmi_arm() had been told to trigger the NMI more than a 
millisecond in the future (likely the HTICK emulation + 100 us NMI 
threshold).

Running a UP + LAPIC enabled kernel on the same hw did not trigger the 
spurious NMI, so I'd bet that the issue is SMP related, and not 
hw/perfctr related.
