Because we've never done that on i?86/x86_64, so it would confuse users,
plus there can be instructions in inline asm, there is target attribute,
function multiversioning, etc.

A year or more ago I've been regtesting with hacks to let the assembler
complain, I just remember it wasn't that easy, but don't remember the
details anymore.
