Releasedate...

Yes, that is a theory that has been discussed. One detail does not support this though, the Pentium Pro chip was released in November 1995. From the date code of the chip above we can read A6239303AA which would be week 23 1996 with the standard datecode Intel uses.

But it could be a new version of the Pentium Pro, trying to make it smaller, like when they went from socket 4 to socket 5/7 chips.

Intel 80332

It's an Intel 80332 I/O processor, used mainly for SCSI RAID.

What do I win?

Wrong

I thought the doc I was looking at was 1995, but it's 2005. So I'm wrong. No prize for me!

Done...

Intel has been asked about this and numerous other chips and there are just plain silence. This is a pre-production sample, only available for development. Therefore i doubt that first line support who receives the question has any info about this.
