PyTables: Illegal instruction error

I got Illegal instruction error when executing the code below in docker with OS X and ubuntu. However, it works fine using CoreOS with docker and OS X and ubuntu directly. The error seems only happens in version 3.2.0. I solved the issue by downgrading pytables to 3.1.1. Any idea for this?

import tables
tables.open_file('a.h5', 'w')

get rid of -native VirtualBox does not support SSE4 or POPCNT yet, so this will prevent a build on a new machine from inserting newish instructions — committed to jennolsen84/PyTables by jennolsen84 9 years ago

I can confirm this is fixed now in the py36_4 conda-forge package.

I’m closing this since both wheels and conda-forge builders are configured to avoid AVX2 instructions.
