Dan, Re: "PPro had a glitch when it made 16 bit calls from 32 bit mode, but it was faster on most code in IPC and it scaled to higher MHZ, too. Another reminder that P4 is the only X86 core ever released in any company's line that failed to improve IPC."

Wonderful observation. Now, how do you know that the Pentium 4 doesn't have a similar glitch (or glitches) that, once fixed, will provide far more IPC than the previous generation?
