Karmic i386 flavour changes

[Colin Watson]

Oh, and have we done any benchmarking on the Ubuntu kernel with PAE
turned off vs. on? http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/845637
(parent: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/845514, thread:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/843866) has some fairly
excoriating comments, noting that it slows down little things like
fork() fairly significantly.

It makes sense to me to offer a clear choice between non-PAE and PAE (I
certainly understand why people might well not want to jump to amd64
given the pain around compatibility libraries, although note that we're
actually putting serious effort into multiarch now), and I have no
issues with doing that; it'll help some users and satisfy OEMs. I just
question whether we should be setting PAE as the default.
