Hmm, so SSE2 is not a requirement on Debian?
How does luajit itself work on your system, how does it behave?

Or you could drop building luaJIT completely. fmtutil already ignores
errors from missing luajit* engines, so that would be an easy way.
And if Debian requires halfway decent machines, the it can be
reactived.
Also, this changes should go well with release managers, I assume.
