Unrelated, but you now need to use -DGMX_SIMD=SSE4.1 to have the same
effect.

We try to find Sphinx in case people want to build the new documentation,
but it looks like some part of the detection isn't reliable enough. Can you
please try changing line 52 of cmake/FindSphinx.cmake to read

    string(REGEX REPLACE "Sphinx \\([^)]*\\) ([^ ]+)" "\\1"
SPHINX_EXECUTABLE_VERSION "${SPHINX_VERSION_OUTPUT_VARIABLE}")

and let us know how you go?

I was able to compile Gromacs 5.0 using same cmake command….
