leskin-in opened a new pull request #478: Build: Check -mno-sse2 is available 
for GNU CXX
URL: https://github.com/apache/madlib/pull/478
 
 
   **Jira**: [MADLIB-1410](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MADLIB-1410)
   
   Implement a check that `-mno-sse2` option is available for the chosen GNU 
CXX compiler. This [is a platform-specific 
option](https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.8.5/gcc/i386-and-x86-64-Options.html)
 and should not be set on machines with architectures that do not support it.
   
   This requires a new CMake module `CheckCXXCompilerFlag`. It [is available in 
CMake 2.8.4](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v2.8.4/cmake.html), which is the 
lowest currently supported CMake version.
   
   An extra CMake variable, `SSE_DISABLE_OPTIONS`, is introduced to hold 
options required for GNU CXX compilers that support SSE-specific options.
   
   ### Notes
   The implemented mechanism is just one of multiple possible implementations. 
For example, one could check the target system architecture instead of using 
`CHECK_CXX_COMPILER_FLAG`. In addition, CMake itself has several implementation 
options, with the same result.
