wrong results. You must build all
modules with <code>-mpreferred-stack-boundary=3</code>, including any
libraries. This includes the system libraries and startup modules.</li>
+ <li>Support for the new Intel processor codename Broadwell with
+ <code>RDSEED</code>, <code>ADCX</code>, <code>ADOX</code>,
+ <code>PREFETCHW</code> is available through <code>-madx</code>,

+ <li> Support for the Intel RTM and HLE intrinsics, built-in
functions and code generation is available via <code>-mrtm</code> and
<code>-mhle</code>.

sets. Intrinsics and built-in functions are available

<code>-fscedule-insns</code> to work reliably.
