Please see this snippet from check_vect_support_and_set_flags,
lib/target-supports.exp:

    } elseif { [istarget i?86-*-*] || [istarget x86_64-*-*] } {
        lappend DEFAULT_VECTCFLAGS "-msse2"
        if { [check_effective_target_sse2_runtime] } {
            set dg-do-what-default run
        } else {
            set dg-do-what-default compile
        }

So, "dg-do run" will overwrite this and vect.exp will run the testcase
on targets that are not sse2 capable. We do have check_vect as a
safety net, but running the executable in this case is just pointless.
Please also note that check_effective_target_sse2_runtime checks that
the assembler is capable of assembling SSE2 instructions, and will
prevent assembling and linking failure.

I'd like to point out, that "dg-do compile" directives remain in the testcases.

Uros.
