	But that's expected: -xP will emit SSE3 instructions that are not
supported by the k8; therefore the program aborts.

	Now, I don't understand why applying this patch would change the
situation since, in principle, the binary does not contain any sse2/x87
path (unlike when using -axP).  In fact I just tried to patch a binary
produced on a k8 using -xP and the resulting binary does not work either,
producing the same error message at startup.
	Maybe you did use another patch?
