A typo in the header file include name. It should
be microcode_MU16830c.h I just committed the fix.
The code was mostly written by converting old freebios1 code,
and reading the appropriate docs.

As to how these things are named I have simply been using
the hex value of %eax that comes back from cpuid.
Which is roughly cpufamily, cpumodel, stepping as reported by /proc/cpuinfo.
With various bits ignored as seems appropriate.
With respect to discriminating which code needs to runs on which cpu
this seems to be a fairly good arrangement.

Patches to romcc are welcome. My hunch in this case is that you had an undefined
macro but without the error message I can't guess.
