Yes. But, here's the deal.

 

There's this flag in CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS: -march=prescott

 

The 'prescott' value means:

"Improved version of Intel Pentium4 CPU with MMX, SSE, SSE2 and SSE3 instruction set support."

And, that means: NO 64bit INSTRUCTION SET!

 

Don't you worry.

 

Changing 'march' to 'nocona' or 'core2' seems to fix that.

 

 

But, there's a catch. This must be done manually. Unless someone can tell us how can we change the CPU ID value that comes from the

 

/usr/sbin/sysctl -n hw.cpufamily

 

command.
