[Bug]: Can not build on Mac OS X86.

[qianwch]

What happened?

I had to set RUSTFLAGS="-C target-feature=+avx2,+fma" to perform the build. But the building still failed:

How can we reproduce the bug?

Use homebrew to install rust the current version is 1.8.1.
Follow the building steps.

RUSTFLAGS="-C target-feature=+avx2,+fma" cargo pgrx install --release

Are you going to work on the bugfix?

🆘 No, could someone else please work on the bugfix?

Agreed that this platform should be supported. What is the build error that you see without passing target-feature=+avx2,+fma? I'm guessing your hardware does not have the expected SIMD support, but this shouldn't be required anyway, there are non-SIMD codepaths for everything.

It informs me to add the flags:

@qianwch can you please provide the output of rustc --print cfg -C target-cpu=native and also tell us your processor as found in [apple] -> "About This Mac" -> "processor" or "chip". Thanks.
