If they are going to move the Banias core up to desktop and server, obviously they will have to give it a new system interface.

Judging by this link they will have to teach it about PAE36/PAE40 too: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.mplayer.user/28035

I think those two things are the least of their worries actually. It's the actual ALU/registers and instruction decoders that are more difficult to rush.
