Thanks for another great patch, Taoyama-san!

Yes. It is annoying that the machdep.cpu class
is unimplemented in some situations.
I am a bit wary of using the "P6 Family" label -
according to Intel's doco it does cover a very large
family of CPUs. But the inclusion of the features,
which you have inserted into processor_flags,
makes it very safe in this situation.
Just doing some tests, and will then commit this.
