As I mentioned on #-release: I think we should just document that the baseline on i386 now requires SSE2 instead of limiting the statement to selected packages. If apt requires SSE2 indirectly, it doesn't matter to most users that technically it is only sqv. This together with other changes (such as dropped i386 kernels) probably also answers de-facto the questions what the i386 port is for: running on old systems or running old software on new systems. (And would probably mean that GCC could also enable SSE2 by default in future releases.) Ansgar
