According to the Apple developers note just released for this machine its

Yep.  It is exactly the same motherboard as the previous set of
machines (733 / dual 800 / 867).  There might be firmware changes to
support the new cpus but the hardware is identical, and I believe
that Apple's intent with the model IDs is to identify motherboard
architectures, not cpus.
