i386 and amd64 are different platforms, so of course you get different packages.
Within the same platform, all binaries that are built should run on all possible members of that platform. So, code will be compiled WITHOUT AVX support, unless it can be detected at runtime (e.g. mplayer/ffmpeg). I believe that firefox does not to runtime detection, so firefox should not directly call AVX. On 2018 May 21 (Mon) at 18:37:43 -0300 (-0300), Elias M.
