New submission from Neil Schemenauer:
The test in setup.py to check for SSE2 support is incorrect. Checking that
arch == x86_64 is not sufficient. If the kernel is 64-bit but Python is
compiled with a 32-bit compiler, the _blake2 module will fail to build.
The attached patch fixes this issue. I did a quick search of the x86_64 string,
I don't see this mistake being made elsewhere but I imagine it could be done
elsewhere. Obviously a machine with a 64-bit kernel and 32-bit userspace is a
rare as hen's teeth these days. Still, I think it is worth fixing this bug.
