At least I have some idea how it works internally.
Looking at the code, I figured out what is causing problem.
I was using reservation "athlon-ieu + athlon-mult", where athlon-ieu
is temporary defined as nothing (since the automata runs out of control
oterhwise).
The nothing is what probably confused genatomata. Removing it makes everything
to work fluently again.

I am commiting the fix to i386.md.  You maybe just want to add an error
message complaining about usage of nothing in + operator.
