Are you sure that all Intel CPUs are affected? Might just be older ones.

Yep, and until the embargo about this is over, we won't know anything with any certainty. This has been one hell of a fun thing to watch from the outside. I run a small test your code service (for all versions of Perl) that could be affected by this so I'm really curious what the whole thing is.
