Comment (by mouse07410):

 I'm a latecomer here, and don't have the full context. But, as I've done a
 lot with compiling optimized crypto code on Mac (outside of Macports):

 In my experience, Clang requires flags {{{-maesni -mpcmul}}} for code like
 this. GCC, in addition to that, requires a different assembler, like env
 variable {{{AS_INTEGRATED_ASSEMBLER=1}}} and {{{CFLAGS += -Wa,-q
 -Wa,-march=native}}} (re. {{{-march}}}: maybe {{{-maesni -mpcmul}}}
 instead).
