Description Daniel Santos 2015-03-27 19:28:10 UTC 
This restriction is inherently violated on Intel Core 2 P7350 which has sse but not mmxext. It looks like somebody was just being lazy. In other words, having SSE does *not* depend upon having mmxext. If the code has this requirement, then the ebuild needs to be reworked to accommodate processors like the P7350 (even if it means disabling sse support).

Disable sse support on your setup, that's the point of the REQUIRED_USE expression.
