Well intel's pages do seem to indicate in a number of places that VT is
supported, yet many many people have confirmed that the T5500 does not
have VT supporte enabled (except stepping 2).

It seems intel has screwed up on the T5500 somewhere, either in the
documentation or the actual production.

Other places intel does say it does NOT have VT (or rather they don't
say it does).  For example:
http://processorfinder.intel.com/details.aspx?sSpec=SL9SQ (does not have VT)
http://processorfinder.intel.com/details.aspx?sSpec=SL9U8 (has VT)
Both are T5500s.
