It is not simulator that is problematic. My binutils-of-the-day
doesn't support BMI2 insns.

Just an idea - is it possible to setup development environment with a
simulator on one of gcc compile-farm machines? This way, everything
will work out of the box and with detailed instructions, I won't
scratch my head on how to setup simulator every time new ISA is
introduced ;)
