its more that if mmx is supported mmx functions are used and
if mmxext is supported too, some, but not all, functions are replaced
with faster mmxext functions.

attached is a version of your patch with ralph's buildsystem changes
and the missing mmx functions. 
im able to build it with 

 ./configure --disable-shared

otherwise getting an error right now:
/usr/bin/ld: .libs/libtheora_la-dsp_mmx.o: relocation R_X86_64_32S
against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object;
recompile with -fPIC
.libs/libtheora_la-dsp_mmx.o: could not read symbols: Bad value

will look into that and apply the patch once i figured that out.
could you test the patch and see if its otherwise ok.

thanks, j
