I wonder if answers like this are meant to be filled into a
template like this: "We have [$2] in place for that. If that
doesn't get the job $1, please report whatever is missing to
bugzilla. Thanks!"
Since otherwise it should be clear that the distinction
between AVX2 and FMA4 asks for something more specialized
than D_SIMD, which is basically the same as checking the
front-end __VERSION__.
