Intel Application Note #241618). Naturally it's meaningful on IA-32[E]
platforms only. The variable is normally set up automatically upon
toolkit initialization, but can be manipulated afterwards to modify
-crypto library behaviour. For the moment of this writing three bits are
+crypto library behaviour. For the moment of this writing five bits are
significant, namely bit #28 denoting Hyperthreading, which is used to
-distinguish Intel P4 core, bit #26 denoting SSE2 support, and bit #4
-denoting presence of Time-Stamp Counter. Clearing bit #26 at run-time

executed on SSE2 capable CPU, but under control of OS which does not
support SSE2 extentions. Even though you can manipulate the value
programmatically, you most likely will find it more appropriate to set
up an environment variable with the same name prior starting target

Alternatively you can reconfigure the toolkit with no-sse2 option and
recompile.
