That's not possible, since configure doesn't use anything like mno-mmx2.

IMHO Thijs just checked his /proc/cpuinfo and saw no mmxext flag
there, but this doesn't necessarily mean that this cpu isn't mmx2
capable.

C3-2 supports SSE, so it should support MMX2, just like a Pentium III,
although the MMXExt bit in cpuid's extended feature string isn't set.
