It's probably not certain whether that's a "bug".
Prior content in this discussion suggested that the flag might have been
intentionally not advertised, due to
great to see that we have an enhaced version of the initial quick`n`dirty patch
now. i just tested it on ubuntu 13.10 with kernel from 14.04 repository

works as expected ! hopefully ubuntu #930447 can now be closed soon and the
patch
will quickly find it´s way into tru

Pentium M is PAE capable but does not indicate so in the CPUID response.
This is an issue now that some distributions are no longer shipping
non-PAE kernels (those distributions no longer boot on Pentium M). This
small patch fixes the issue by forcing the PAE capability on Pentium M.
