Error: unsupported instruction `sysenter'

Created by: vanhauser-thc

Describe the bug when I try to compile dynamorio it aborts with an error:

# make
-- Version number: 7.91.18289
-- WARNING: vera++ not found: disabling code style checks
-- Found Qt 5: DrGUI will be built
[...]
prg/tmp/dynamorio/core/arch/x86/x86.asm: Assembler messages:
/prg/tmp/dynamorio/core/arch/x86/x86.asm:805: Error: unsupported instruction `sysenter'
make[2]: *** [core/CMakeFiles/dynamorio_static.dir/build.make:822: core/CMakeFiles/dynamorio_static.dir/arch/x86/x86.asm.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:143: core/CMakeFiles/dynamorio_static.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:152: all] Error 2

I thought this is make due a change in the code and reverted to an old version of dynamorio that previously compiled fine for me (dynamorio-cronbuild-7.90.18005 from April 2019) - but same issue there.

I also tried gcc-7 and gcc-9, same outcome.

My guess its about the kernel/libc/headers? I am running Linux 5.4.0-amd64 and using libc 2.29

To Reproduce

git clone https://github.com/DynamoRIO/dynamorio/
cd dynamorio
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

Versions github checkout, but same for older versions e.g. 7.0 and 7.1 releases.
