I had thought it was an Amber configure thing. In particular,
configure2 processes this variable into "-ax$SSE_TYPES" in the COPT and
FOPT flags.
I don't know for sure that Intel makes no use of this variable, but I
suspect it is just Amber's configure. If I'm wrong here, hopefully
someone will correct me.
