It probably means that your APIC table has the traditional off-by-one
Compaq error. Note that your situation also looks like the traditional
"no clock interrupts" hang.

Actually, either mode *should* work with 4.x, since we pack intpins down
based on their usage, not their pin number (Tor fixed this a while back).
I've installed 4.2 on a ProFusion box with a single 64-pin APIC (the RAID
controller was on pin 50-something).
