Correct, that was also my first thought - but: this mistake has been repeated
again and again for decades. Here specifically Stefan Kanthak realized that
something is wrong - in many cases simply mtune=native is used and the error
is not realized.

Maybe we should think about how you can support the users better? Maybe by an
explicit hint in the documentation or by a info message at execution time. And
for such discussions this is the right mailing list! ;-)
