Since amd64 is a future target, it may be worthwhile to note these hardware bugs.

'AMD has pledged to fix three bugs in its Opteron chips that, if unremedied, could cause host systems to crash in certain circumstances.

In a June 2004 Opteron and Athlon 64 Revision Guide (PDF), the chip maker lists three processor glitches - known in the trade as 'errata' - that could mean the "system may hang".'
