FFmpeg/libavcodec/ppc/check_altivec.c
Reimar Döffinger d9a5dab2da 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.
