About This File
This is a patched version of an official vanilla mach_kernel from Mavericks 10.9.2, allowing Haswell motherboards capable of booting without reboot loops or kernel panics.
The following perl scripts have been applied to the vanilla mach_kernel for 10.9.2:
#1

I take no credit for the creation of the perl scripts used.
