The reason is that clang-6 does not enable proper -march flags by
default for assembly modules (rsaz-avx512.pl requires avx512ifma, avx512dq,
avx512vl, avx512f). This is not true for newer clang versions - clang-7 and
further work ok.
For older clang versions users who want to get optimization from this
file, we have a note in the OPENSSL_ia32cap.pod with the workaround that
proposes having a wrapper that forces using external assembler.
