Which doesn't make much sense since (AFAIK) there is no difference
between 386DX and 386SX from a programmers point of view.

(The difference between them is that the 386sx has a 16-bit databus and
a 24-bit address bus, while the 386dx has both 32-bit, but this only
affects the motherboard designers, not the people who write software.)
