Thanks for reviewing and merging this patchset!

wfmash's speed is one of the critical features it brings to the
table. We might have rendered the package more or less unusable by
disabling CPU optimizations.

I could try talking to upstream about detecting and using CPU features
at runtime. But, I don't know too much about the topic. Any quick links
I can share with them?

I think it is better if upstream provides us a `make check' target to
run these tests. I have asked them:
https://github.com/ekg/wfmash/issues/130 Hard-coding their CI tests
makes the package fragile. In the future, upstream could change the
tests they run.
