Set -msse2 only for clang ? I suspect, though, that this might only
solve the compile problem. If I understand correctly, the first
warning in the log is due to BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER(), suggesting that
something is seriously wrong. Maybe enabling sse2 results in different
results from floating point operations.

Unfortunately I don't have a system with the affected GPU,
so I can't run any tests on real hardware. Unless someone can test
with real hardware, I think we have no choice but to revert the
patch.
