No, the patch works OK for pentium4. The remaining problem is in 
optimize_mode_switching() function. For a certain loop layout, o_m_s could 
insert emms and efpu insn in such way, that both register sets are blocked.

Because emms/efpu insertion depends heavily on o_m_s functionality, this 
infrastructure should be upgraded as explained in PR 19161.

(BTW: One of the design goals was to ICE, instead of generating wrong code. It 
loks that this goal was achieved :)
