--- Comment #5 from David Edelsohn <dje at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
Power VSX does not support all of the vector modes available on AVX2 and
AVX512, but I believe that Power compatibility with the x86 ABI would be most
convenient. The goal is interoperability with x86 uses of libmvec.
Do you see a reason that libmvec ABI should be different on Power where the VSX
functionality matches AVX?
