+ AUTHOR: asomers@FreeBSD.org
+
+ On i386 the lang/rust port has been updated to require SSE2 by default. Not
+ only does the compiler itself require SSE2, but it unconditionally generates
+ code that requires it, too. Over 500 ports include Rust code (www/firefox,
+ security/py-cryptography, etc). Official binary packages of all of those
+ ports will no longer work on Pentium III and older hardware. PIII users must
+ now build their own lang/rust packages, clearing the SSE2 option, and rebuild
+ any dependent ports.
