Possibly unrelated to this, it looks like a bug... but certainly when it
comes to any SIMD operation. It's not really possible to solve unless the
compiler becomes aware of all architectures intrinsics.
One of my goals for std.simd is a CTFE path for all functions in the API.

This example should surely work though.
