The current build fails with GCC6 on Debian sid i386 (unstable):
/tmp/ccqjaueF.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccqjaueF.s:3713: Error: missing or invalid displacement expression `vmovd_to_reg_len@GOT'
This is due to the combination of GCC6, and Debian's decision to
enable some hardening flags by default (to try to make runtime
addresses less predictable):

This is of no benefit for the x86 instruction emulator test, which is
a rebuild of the emulator code for testing purposes only. So pass
options to disable this.
These options will be no-ops if they are the same as the compiler
default.
On amd64, the -fno-pic breaks the build in a different way. So do
this only on i386.
