At [1] you can see that the former patch that used to check about the
compatibility of the CPU with Blender has been dropped since upstream
developers declared that a better (and elegant) solution was found and
that patch wasn't useful anymore.

prevent all the cases. I already got in touch with them and we'll see
how to solve this long-persecuting issue.

Cheers.
