When I try to compile qemu on MinGW gcc 3.4.5 using -march=i686 or higher, or
use -msse, the helper.c file on the i386 (but not the x86_64 target, for some
odd reason) spits out
C:/msys/1.0/home/Owner/SoureCode/qemu/target-i386/helper.c: In function
`svm_check_intercept_param':

A similar error happens on ppc with op_helper, but it seems to be a problem
with a header file (it also doesn't choke up when compiling the 64-bit
target... odd):
