The current build fails with GCC6 on Debian sid i386 (unstable): /tmp/ccqjaueF.s: Assembler messages: /tmp/ccqjaueF.s:3713: Error: missing or invalid displacement expression `vmovd_to_reg_len@GOT'
This is due to the combination of GCC6, and Debian's decision to enable some hardening flags by default (to try to make runtime addresses less predictable): https://wiki.debian.org/Hardening/PIEByDefaultTransition This is of no benefit for the x86 instruction emulator test, which is a rebuild of the emulator code for testing purposes only. So pass options to disable this. These options will be no-ops if they are the same as the compiler default. On amd64, the -fno-pic breaks the build in a different way. So do this only on i386.
