Hmm, I suppose the extension would be to the C type-generic math piece.  Of
course that would require library support for most routines (and an ABI for
them) or GCC, if no such routine is specified, expanding to a call for each
vector component.  Just special-casing sqrt may be convenient but odd.

Joseph, any input?
