It kinda does apply.

We've never ever had CSO handler (hence why it was autogen'd the first
time I tried making this more robust), and you didn't like my patch to
autogen the exception entries.
The CSO handler (and SPV) are the only two we can be pretty confident
will never trigger on today's hardware, yet you also didn't like my
suggestion of having them Not Present.

Ah, I see what you mean.  I'll see if I can make it work.
