Why _Intel_ machine check? And why it says  CPU: After vendor init
twice? [This is 2.5.6-acpi...]

AMD supports the intel machine check on Athlon

 Same reason the Athlon has Intel style MTRRs.
 Though digging through the docs the last day or so, the MCE isn't
 100% compatable. I'll work on this sometime soon.

 SMP kernel ? 
 We init the boot CPU twice on SMP iirc.

Unless I made mistake, it was UP kernel.
