This is from the djgpp (DOS port of gcc) mailinmg list, posted by the
author of said port himself. It's short enought to post and might be

Subject: Intel recalls Pentium
Status: RO
CNN reported this weekend that Intel has announced that they will
replace ALL defective Pentium(tm) processors, no questions asked. To
determine if your Pentium(tm) is devective, run the attached MS-DOS
program FDIVBUG1.COM (source included also). It will tell you if you
have the bug and where to call for a replacement if needed.
