Many of the volk kernels have SSE* implementations. So for x86, orc
doesnt give much benefit. But on a platform like arm, orc gives you neon
optimized routines where there were no neon specific kernels implemented.

You may just be able to snag the liborc debian package from ubuntu
11.10. It only requires libc6, so it should be a harmless package upgrade.
