Are you sure this is correct?  You just incremented c->x86 by extended
family, so I believe test should be

                if (c->x86 == 0x6 || c->x86 >= 0xf)

or maybe just

                if (c->x86 >= 0x6)

as chips with family 7..14 will either never appear, or they'll follow
existing rules (I believe all chips ever built return upper bits of tfms
zeroed, so maybe we could get rid of all these 'if' completely).
