In the 2.6.29-gentoo-r5 I have, the "Intel MCE features" and "AMD MCE features" (which are mentioned in the Handbook -- for amd64, at least) as residing directly under "Processor type and features" are now under "Machine Check Exception".

Reproducible: Always

Thanks for reporting; fixed in CVS.

Also updated Processor Family section for new options.
