That’s really good news!  Thanks for testing it.

The patch LGTM.  Can you confirm that the planner won’t ever try to use
the AVX2 codelets, for instance when running the test suite on an x86_64
box that lacks AVX2?

If that’s the case, I’d be in favor of pushing this patch to core-updates.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
