Build one in a simulator where an independent root enclave key can be
established.  At least thats the approach we are working on with
Jarkko's patches.

Intel does have an instruction accurate simulator, Microsoft used it
for the work which was reported in the Haven paper.  I believe the Air
Force academy used that simulator for their work on SGX as well.

As with other issues SGX related it is unclear why access to the
simulator was/is restricted.  Given that Gen6 hardware is now emerging
there would seem to be even less reason to not have the simulator
generically available to allow implementations to be tested.
