comparison ppc/check_altivec.c @ 5757:ace63c809071 libavcodec

Remove uses of SIGILL for CPU extension detection, that method is not acceptable in a library. Should not change anything for PPC, the autodetection is currently pointless due to other code being compiled with -maltivec as well (and detection for OSX and AmigaOS remains in place). SPARC binaries built with VIS support can now only run on systems with VIS.
