I suspect those test failures are due to --disable-sse.  You shouldn't use
this option unless you really need to support historic x86 hardware, as it
affects correctness - it's not just some speed tweak (though it does also
help the speed).  The CPU you quote the details of seems to support SSE
(up to SSSE3):

For some reason there's no output in the log from apitest.exe, so it's
hard to say what's up there.  But it could be --disable-sse again.

Cheers,
