Jose,
This was an issue with the tf compile flags. As far as my research got me
there is not a good standard way to test for it on all platforms. On linux
you can read /proc/cpuinfo
I have an open ticket with a few relevant links I have found.
https://code.ros.org/trac/ros-pkg/ticket/3906 If you find something please
either post back here or there. If we can find a good generic solution I
will add it to the ROS build documentation.
