i just noticed the manual's section entitled:
"Using vector instructions through built-in functions"
it documents specifying types through:
typedef int v4si __attribute__ ((mode(V4SI)));
i should add documentation there for the vector_size() atribute.
Should i remove the above mode() documentation (for this section) in
favor of the new vector_size() documentation, or should i augment the
current docs by providing info for vector_size()?
In my opinion, we should go for the new vector_size attribute which is
much cleaner.
