Thats nice. However the problem is that the application we valgrind might want 
to run the cpuid instruction and will then expect to receive a SIGILL. We 
can't just skip the instruction, since that will break the simulation. 

The case you're trying to fix is when valgrind calls itself cpuid to figure 
some things out. Thats a different issue though.
