19          CPU_FAMILY_I386     - The processor is an Intel-compatible 386
20          CPU_FAMILY_I486     - The processor is an Intel-compatible 486
21          CPU_FAMILY_I586     - The processor is a Pentium or equivalent
22          CPU_FAMILY_I686     - The processor is a Pentium Pro, II, III
23                                or equivalent
24          CPU_FAMILY_ITANIUM  - The processor is an Itanium processor
25          CPU_FAMILY_POWERPC  - The processor is a PowerPC processor
26          CPU_FAMILY_EXTENDED - The processor type needs to be read
27                                from the cpu_model

29       You can read this variable after you have called check_cpu() (which  is
30       automatically called by allegro_init()).
