Just tried it on AMD FX 8210 from the package and had the same Illegal
hardware and code dump. I dowload the PKGBUILD of the package and bumped
the version to 2.2.2. Compiled and worked.

Can't you make the code use the hardware SSE 4.2 CRC32C if the hardware
is there or use a software implementation of it if not?

What's the difference in performance with and without SSE4.2 enabled -
can we have some metrics?
