The issue with this is that $feature on amd64 is not exactly the same as
$feature on x86. Would a better name be ${ARCH}_FEATURES or somesuch?
That way there would be no confusion as to whether the cpuflags_sse2 USE
flag did something for x86 or for amd64 or for both, since there'd be
either x86_features_sse2 or amd64_features_sse2 or both. It'd also make
handling use masking much easier.
