Every CPU has a coldbug at some temperature, but for some it's at such a low temperature that you won't ever reach it with LN2.
It is possible to go subzero with the current Phenom chips like this one:

But it still has a cold bug somewhere, just not at the temperatures that he was reaching.
The same was for certain Penryn quad-cores at the start of this year, some would crash when used under LN2 and some were fine. It's just that Intel's 'coldbug temperature' has always been much lower than AMD's and that's why it's much more obvious on AMD chips.
