That was insightful.  :(

| 
| Aug 17 11:25:13 codewave kernel: MCE: The hardware reports a non fatal, 
| correctable incident occurred on CPU 0.
| Aug 17 11:25:13 codewave kernel: Bank 0: dc0000000000050b
| 
| ...but what parsemce seems to be expecting is:

|  Sample kernel output..
|  Sep  4 21:43:41 hamlet kernel: CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: 
| 0000000000000004
| Sep  4 21:43:41 hamlet kernel: Bank 1: f600200000000152 at 7600200000000152
| Sep  4 21:43:41 hamlet kernel: Bank 2: d40040000000017a at 540040000000017a
| Sep  4 21:43:41 hamlet kernel: Kernel panic: CPU context corrupt

| As a result, I'm still no more enlightened.  I can't quite figure out from

Yes, the kernel has decided that your processor only has 1 Bank of
MCE register data to report.  I don't know how/why.  Sorry.
