Make that 51 (IMPL_VA_MSB is 50 on Itanium, i.e., the number of
virtual address bits is 51; some day I'll get this right... ;-)

Thanks to Matt for pointing this out and sorry for the confusion.

You can check whether your firmware is recent enough by doing:

	fgrep Virtual /proc/pal/cpu0/vm_info

If it displays "51 bits", you're in fine shape.
