The following patch changes the x86 intrinsic compat headers to use #error
instead of #warning. We do this for two reasons. Firstly, we want the user
to really be sure they want/need to use the x86 intrinsic compat support
before doing so, because a warning is too easy to ignore. Secondly, we don't
want configure time tests that check for whether x86 intrinsic support exists
and then use them if they do, to automatically enable usage of them.
The x86 intrinsic compat support should only be used when there is no other
option to the user (ie, no generic or ppc specific code exists).
Is this ok for trunk?
