Comment:
The right thing is to put `-msse` in the `cc-options` field of your
`.cabal` file, if that's what you want.
I'm distinctly uneasy about having `-msse` magically pass through to
`gcc`.
* There are many flags that we do ''not'' pass through to gcc, so having
one that we do pass through could be confusing (and lead to lots more
requests for more flags to be passed through)
* What if there is a variant of `-msse` that gcc supports but we don't?
Wouldn't we have to keep them in sync?
I'm going to close this as wontfix, but please feel free to reopen and
disagree.
