GF2X should support --disable-hardware-specific-code plus specific other enabled features
Imported issue: Initially reported by Ximin Luo in https://gforge.inria.fr/tracker/?group_id=1874&aid=21599
At the moment if I give --disable-hardware-specific-code --enable-sse2 the latter is totally ignored (and then I hit bug #21598 (closed)).
On Debian our AMD64 (X86-64) release is supposed to support SSE2 but none of the other hardware optimisations supported by GF2X. In order to do this, I currently have to add a hacky patch to configure.ac, but it would be better if I could simply give --disable-hardware-specific-code --enable-sse2.
Of course in this case, the SSE2 tests should also be run (but not the PCLMUL tests).
