I.e. just because you have sse42 at compile time doesn't guarantee you have it at run time with a DSO. If you have these as macros, you need to enable sse42 whereever you include the file so that the intrinsic works properly. an alternate option would be to not use the intrinsic, and craft some explicit __asm__ statement that executes the right sse42 instructions. That way the asm is directly emitted, without requiring the -msse42 flag at all, and it will just work in all the files that call it.
