Well, it works perfectly for me. Problem is: The vector multply-add
works different than mentioned in all manuals and I'd like to know 
which manual is wrong and how to fix it correctly (be it in my
applications, gcc or binutils). Of course I silently assumed that
the hardware (7410) is doing the correct thing because I'd be 
pretty doomed otherwise.
