Well, AFAICT, "qemu32" is emulating something PPRO-like:

#define PPRO_FEATURES (CPUID_FP87 | CPUID_DE | CPUID_PSE | CPUID_TSC | \
          CPUID_MSR | CPUID_MCE | CPUID_CX8 | CPUID_PGE | CPUID_CMOV | \
          CPUID_PAT | CPUID_FXSR | CPUID_MMX | CPUID_SSE | CPUID_SSE2 | \
          ^^^^^^^^^

and that one advertizes PAT but not MTRRs.

I need to go dig into history to find out what PPRO actually supported.
