I strongly advise to not use core.simd at this point. It is in a 
horribly broken state and generates code that is far from efficient. If 
you use core.simd your code will be slower then if you use normal 
floating point math. Also afaik core.simd is currently only supported by 
dmd meaning that yuo have to rewrite the code in case you want to go to 
ldc or gdc. If you need simd with dmd, write inline assembly. If you 
need simd with the other two compilers, use the gcc intrinsics, they 
work on both compilers.
