Subject: Re: OpenMP patch/DES SSE key setup patch
Solar,
Sorry, I should have spent a moment looking at it before I sent that
out. You are probably correct, clean more than likely wasn't called
before the rebuild after modifying the flags. Btw, I chose to modify
it just under the linux-x86-sse2 target, rather than globally. Wasn't
sure if there were side effects to that being brought in elsewhere.
