The libcpp configure script tests the capabilities of the system in deciding whether to use that assembly code or not. That test evidently failed with the stage 1 compiler but passed with the stage 2 compiler. Looking at libcpp/config.log in both stage 1 and stage 2 might tell you more. Look for SSE4 or pcmpestri.
