------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 Currently the logic for selecting for fast CMOV or slower CMOV (Netburst-
 based CPUs) is broken and appears to be assuming a slower CMOV and only
 enables fast_cmov when a CPU detection override is called for.

 This could result in AVC CABAC decoding going slower than it should (from
 what I gather by reading piles of discussions from the ffmpeg mailing
 list).

 Note this has nothing to do with those cheapie CPUs (*kof*C3*kof*) that
 don't support CMOV at all--that is being checked for elsewhere and looks
 correct enough.
