For the single-precision functions, the corresponding new functions would compute 4 results simulatneously. For the double-precision functions, the new ones would compute 2 results simultaneously. x86_64 has already done something very similar so I thought I would adapt as much of their documentation and implementation as I could for PPC64. Let's start with that. Comments so far? Bert.
