fwiw, my Athlon XP2400 does the same in 2.5.67-ac1:

processor : 0
vendor_id : AuthenticAMD
cpu family : 6
model : 8
model name : AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2400+
stepping : 1
cpu MHz : 0.000
cache size : 256 KB
bogomips : 1970.17

Interesting enough, even the bogomips have halved w.r.t. earlier 2.5.x
kernels and 2.4.2x kernels. Booting a 2.4.21-pre7 kernel on the same
machine gets me close to 4000 bogomips, as is proper for a 2 GHz cpu.

The ioapic code does report the correct bus-speed however.

Ah well, they were bogus to begin with.
