This is an intentional upstream change which also affects the binaries
provided by Mozilla:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/your-hardware-no-longer-supported

It might be possible to disable the use of SSE2 for the i386 architecture
(as every CPU covered by amd64 supports SSE2), but I have no idea how
intrusive that would be (and might cause some problems in the long term
if the non-SSE2 code paths are not covered by upstream CI/tests). It's
also one additional patch to be carried forward until i386 is retired
as an architecture.

Cheers,
