Yeah, there are a lot of target features, but they are not getting enabled.

Eventually, a stable target spec alternative (e.g. all relevant target
feature flags) should be available, and then we can know what the
guaranteed behavior will be and thus decide better which flags to keep
or not depending on how explicit we want to be with respect to that.

For the moment I went for consistency with the line above, since that
was enough to disable everything we needed, though as you may have
noticed, 3dnow and mmx are not there, because I had to move them back
to the target spec [1].
