Yes. Previously the probe (and usage) of this instructions was restricted
to running sparc64. However, this is wrong, as we can run sparc userland
on CPUs that have these instructions, so probing should be done there too.

The probing needs to work correctly though, and something is wrong there.

I'm investigating (should be pretty easy with only base system, no sendmail
needed and concrete mail host needed).
