After deploying on production machines I can confirm this fix makes pgvector installable. |

Same here, mind rebasing now that CI is working? |
Without explicit CFLAGS, make detects the host CPU features (e.g. AVX-512) and generates a .so that crashes with "signal 4: Illegal instruction" on older x86-64 CPUs. Pinning -march=x86-64-v2 ensures compatibility with any x86-64 processor from the last ~15 years. Without this patch, for example you cannot install PGVector if your server runs an Intel® i9-13900 processor. ARM64 builds are not affected. @moduon MT-14612
