          Issue ID: 21490
           Summary: Front end detection logic for SSE4.1 is failing when
                    using -O
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: x86_64
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: dmd
          Assignee: nobody puremagic.com
          Reporter: bugzilla digitalmars.com

Adding -O to test/runnable/testxmm.d results in a seg fault when testxmm is run
because a PMULLD instruction is generated as a result of:

    static if (__traits(compiles, { v1 = v2 * v3; })) // SSE4.1

succeeding, yet my 64 bit linux box does not support that instruction. Weirdly,
this only goes awry with -O.
