That also includes anything compiled and released as a program
binary that must run on older Linux installations.
Such programs have to be compiled with old copies of the system
headers (and probably with an of gcc).
While such programs themselves won't use AVX without checking
for OS support, the glibc code on the installed system might.
Such programs can be modified to run-time detect the required
signal stack size - but cannot rely on glibc to convert
SIGSTKSZ into a function call.
