There is a known bug in the Factor compiler where it generates invalid
code if SSE2 is not available. I created an issue for it:

https://github.com/slavapestov/factor/issues/56

In other news, we now have an issue tracker.

So I've been busy with a new job for the last year so I haven't had
much time to work on Factor, but I'm trying to make time here and
there to fix bugs. I'll definitely prioritize this one now that I see
there are still people with pre-SSE computers :-)
