Description Torne Wuff 2005-04-26 13:32:38 UTC

The mmxext USE flag is masked by the base profile, then unmasked by the x86 profile. However, the hardened x86 profile doesn't unmask mmxext - this prevents building mplayer with support for MMX2 instructions (amongst other things). Add '-mmxext' to profiles/hardened/x86/use.mask.

Reproducible: Always
