+Subject: [PATCH 25/25] DOC: remove references to CPU=native in the README
+
+Certain compilers running in virtualized environments may produce code
+that the same processor cannot execute with -march=native, either because
+of hypervisor bugs reporting wrong CPU features, or because of compiler
+bugs forgetting to check CPU features. So better stop recommending this
+combination so that users don't get trapped anymore.
+(cherry picked from commit 817dad50b02d1a82d495dfea4eab9e3a91127391)
