It's not about whether your CPU supports it, it is about whether or not you have
asked the compiler to use it.  Normally by setting 'CPUTYPE' in /etc/make.conf
or the like.  (I also was bitten by this yesterday on my sandbridge laptop
where I have 'CPUTYPE=corei7-avx' in /etc/src.conf.)  The workaround is to not
set CPUTYPE (or set it to something without AVX like just 'corei7').
