Comment (by cal@…):

 Debian always enables this on amd64 machines, and so should we, I think.
 Debian doesn't seem to care about the license difference, so they
 apparently assume it's compatible with the OpenSSL license terms.

 I think we should enable this for all machines that support `__uint128_t`;
 should we just check `$build_arch` for `x86_64` and enable it for this
 architecture?

 I also don't understand why the patch adds the variant to the default
 variants if it is already enabled.

 Larry, what do you think?
