Looks good to me, though presumably accepting -march=iwmmxt on x86 is a
bug in GCC. Also, looking at this again, isn't there a typo in the
compiler check:
#if defined(__GNUC__) && (__GNUC__ < 4 || (__GNUC__ == 3 && __GNUC_MINOR__ < 6))
#error "Need GCC >= 4.6 for IWMMXT intrinsics"
#endif
where __GNUC__ == 3 should be __GNUC__ == 4?
