Ok, looks like 15 year old systems are still in active use with up-to-date software.

lxml used to target Intel "core2" for the last five years, which was 13 years old then, back in 2019. I now used "sandybridge" as a target for 5.2.0 to enable AVX instructions, but these reports indicate that at least "nehalem" still needs to be supported, which is just one step up. I'll try that for 5.2.1, to get SSE4.2, which is en-par with AMD's Bulldozer chips from 2011+.
