This test expects vectorization at power8+ because strict alignment is not required for vectors. For power7, vectorization is not to take place because it's not deemed profitable: 12 iterations would be required to make it so.
But for power6 and below, the test's 10 iterations are enough to make vectorization profitable, but the test doesn't expect this. Assuming the decision is indeed appropriate, I'm adjusting the expectations. This was regstrapped on x86_64-linux-gnu, tested with a cross to a ppc64-vxworks7r2, and I'm now also regstrapping on ppc64-linux-gnu just to be sure.
