"intentional" would have been to fail with a clear error message during
the configure step (optionally recommending an override option), not
after successfully compiling tons of source files to fail in some crypto
code with a dubious error message:
#error Assembler code is only available for x86 and AMD64 systems
I didn't even try it on a non-x86 platform :-)
This looks rather like completely "untested".
