Well, the FDIV bug is simpler. AFAICT this whole thing is tied up in the relationship between DVFS, silicon aging, and being able to have guarantees about clock reliability. That seems hard to reason about when you give BIOS vendors and users the ability to do over-volting/over-clocking (and of course, it's worse when you are maybe relying on all this in certain situations to try and approach parity with other hardware vendors who are taping out machines on CMOS processes that are more mature than yours).
