This seems broken. You've unilaterally included acl_run_avx2.c in the build
list above, but only enable -mavx2 if the compiler is at least gcc 4.6. Unless
you want to make gcc 4.6 a requirement for building, you need to also exclude
the file above from the build list. That in turn I think allows you to remove a
bunch of the ifdeffing that you've done in some of the avx2 specific files.
