Subject: Re: more targets using sse-intrinsics.S
Looks good. While the intrinsics file is a little slower than md5-mmx.S
for SHA-1, it has the great advantage of being thread safe.
I suppose gcc/icc et al will accept the modified .S format (they have no
problems with the old x86*.S files) so maybe we can unify this to one
sse_intrinsics-32.S again, that is built and get your mods once and for
all when doing "make intrinsics". I'll experiment with this. But this is
pretty cool already. Did you try any OMP builds on Windows?
