If I look at http://svn.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/tags/release_2_2_0/compiler/x86_64/cpuinfo.pas?view=markup it seems that in fpc 2.2.0 regvars are not enabled. Why not?
Because they didn't work properly with x86_64 at first. It was fixed later, but enabling them by default is not a fix so it was not merged to the fixes branch (and since you can explicitly enable them using - Ooregvar, it's even less required to merge this change back).
