Clang is broken when compiling for pre-PPro machines... it compiles
include the cmov instruction.  I sent email to -current about this
earlier this month in:
Subject:   -current broken on pre-PPro machines (w/ work around)

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?20130201170737.GP1410_at_funkthat.com

The work around is to use gcc which will not emit the cmov instructions...
