But surely suggesting what you did above that the kernel gives up if the features are not available is a slight exaggeration? :-)
No it isn't! As Jeff said, PAE *requires* three level page tables and if the processor doesn't offer them it will refuse to load. The memory handling code relies on the number of page table levels available (i.e. the indirection needed to resolve addresses) and can currently only be changed by recompiling the kernel.
