From looking in source code the CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G is broken in many respects,
in my opinion. It's really a 64-bit with 32-bit quirks enabled. Does it even
run on None 64-bit machines? Not many!

Total and utter bullsh*t. It runs on virtually all modern x86's since the P6/K7 (certain Pentium M chips being an exception).

Also, it is required for NX protection and for several of the paravirt environments to work.
