Hi,

If you have problems on 3.3-RC SMP system with APM enabled, 
please test the attached patch and give feedback to me ASAP.

The problem I was reported is that a lot of userland programs get
signal 11 and core dumped on startup.  It seems my bad MCF (8/24) 
breaks extra GDT entries for SMP.

The following patch was already tested among folks in Japan, I 
want fix this before 3.3-RELEASE.

<To Release Coordinator>
  My I commit this for RELENG_3 if somebody reports `fixed!' ?
</To Release Coordinator>
