Subject: Re: CFLAGS="-march=native" sometimes unsupported

Great.
You should indeed be using these -avx and -xop targets where appropriate.
However, if a C compiler happens to have AVX (or even XOP) enabled by
default, that should not prevent other make targets from working. So I
might try to reproduce your build errors later.
For now, my guess remains that the targets would in fact work if
-march=native were implied, but did not work because you somehow
modified the CFLAGS in this way for _some_ source files only. I simply
have no other explanation, although of course this guess might be wrong.

You did not.
