Due to the way the validated code works (keeping the code down to a minimum)
error codes from fips standalone utilities give out numerical error codes.

You can get the answer with "openssl errstr" or by checking the source file
referenced.

In this case it is down to the lack of SSE2 on that processor. Due to the
limited funding available for validation only certain combinations of options
could be tested. So assembly language on x86 requires SSE2 as well.

So either use a box supporting SSE2 or use a pure C build (no-asm) which
will have poorer performance.
