So did I get it right:
You build a binary with RTE_MACHINE="default" on a box with AVX2 support.
Then run that binary on 
a) native box (machine with AVX2 support)
b) machine without AVX2 support

For the same input and same rules, same binary you got different results for a) and b).  
If that is the case, then there is something wrong here, either within our code or with the compiler you are using.
Could you provide steps to reproduce it?
I did a quick test with l3fwd-acl for that case, 'default' binary that I built on HSW board,
works as expected on IVB box for me. 

Build box: HSW (E3-1285), gcc 4.8.3 
SUT: IVB 2.80GHz, gcc 4.8.2

# cat acl_ipv4.rule1
R0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 0 : 0xffff 0 : 0xffff 17/0xff 0
# cat acl_ipv6.rule1
R0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0/0 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0/0 0 : 0xffff 0 : 0xffff 17/0xff 0

./dpdk.org-acl/examples/l3fwd-acl/x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc/l3fwd-acl --lcores=3 -n 4 --socket-mem=1024,0 -w 0000:04:00.1 -- -p 1 --config "(0, 0, 3)" --rule_ipv4=./acl_ipv4.rule1 --rule_ipv6=acl_ipv6.rule1 -P

Forwards UDP packets, drops all others.

Anything else in your setup, that I am missing here?
