I have now done a basic functionality test in QEMU-KVM, both with the
default SSE2-enabled qemu64 CPU and with "-cpu pentium3" (which claims to
not support SSE2 in cpuid), and in both cases things appear to work. I am
not aware of any testing done on a real non-SSE2 machine though. (The KVM
test with the fake cpuid tests that the non-SSE2 code paths don't crash, but
it does not guarantee that there are really no SSE2 instructions
encountered. That can only be reliably verified with full software CPU
emulation or with a real non-SSE2 CPU.)
