Correct. SSE1 is now a minimum requirement. Supporting non-SSE variants is too much hassle and everybody, more or less, has at least a Pentium-III or equivalent CPU anyway. Requiring SSE hardware is a significant Limitation that as of 2005-08-06 is not mentioned in http://www.valgrind.org/docs/manual/manual-core.html#manual-core.limits [or other place in the manual; but this looks like a very good one]. Fixed (vex 1321, valgrind 4339). *** Bug 111739 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
