Ohh, well, the test has done its job, it found a bug.

I've taken a look at the log and I see what the problem might be. Considering that aarch64-linux-gnu-g++ is being used, it appears to be a compilation for ARM, but with BUILD_ARCH=amd64 and HOST_ARCH=arm64, shouldn't it be the other way around? In any case, if this isn't an error, I would look for when HOST_ARCH=arm64 and wouldn't use USE_AVX2=ON, which is the parameter that sends -mavx2. Because right now, I'm using BUILD_ARCH, and since it's amd64, it assumes it should use USE_AVX2=ON. César
