Is it SSE3 (i686 SIMD) or SSSE3 (strange, unknown)?
Is it -mssse3 or -msse3?

-mssse3 is S-SSE3 which was added for code dual 2.
Yes the option is weird but that is what Intel wantted it to be called.
I don't want to start another fight with their stupid marketing guys
again like what happened with pentium4.

Is the hyphen in "S-SSE3" the correct spelling, then? If so, the text of the announcement should probably be edited....
