This is neither required nor the correct fix.

Software in Debian is supposed to run on the baseline of the
architecture, and not unconditionally require more recent CPUs.
The package builds just fine for me after removing the -mpopcnt from the
Makefile, and this is the correct fix.
Fun fact:
Disassembling the binary in unstable reveals that gcc did not emit
any popcnt instructions on amd64.
