I'd appreciate it if you boot it up off an Owl LiveCD (x86_64) and let
me SSH in (please provide the login details off-list). I've attached
our standard instructions (which we normally use for remote installs of
Owl). The download links are right here:

(BTW, we've updated Owl-current to use OpenSSL 1.0.0d since the last
discussion in here.)

It does (one instruction per AES round, not a specific mode). In fact,
this was introduced earlier, not with Sandy Bridge. I am considering
making use of this for a related purpose - see our GSoC ideas list:
http://openwall.info/wiki/ideas
If JtR ever needs to crack anything based on AES where performance
of AES encryption itself matters (normally, there would be a slow key
derivation function instead), then these instructions will also be
useful for JtR.
Thanks,
Alexander
