I don't see any simpler way, but I'm open to practical suggestions.

It is even possible to force the use of non-SSE plugins at run time, but
I have no way to control whether ${CONFIGURE_SCRIPT} will detect SSE or
not (other than hacking ito it). What I really need is to be able to
*predict* whether SSE-enabled plugins will be built or not, and the use
of the sysctl is the only way I have found to do so.
