Masking out the 12th ecx register bit on level 1 makes it possible to do a vmotion between the hosts. Apparently this 12th bit which used to be 'reserved' is now used for SSE4.1 I don't know if this is useful to you but it'll probably be useful to someone :) I have been able to make a custom mask for vmotion between in intel 5335 quadcore and an intel 5420 quadcore which (according to the Virtual Center error message) have an SSE4.1 issue.
