Great.

This is basically duplicate work to what I reported on here:

That's fine.

This is just one core running the non-SIMD code.

Since the core tree uses SIMD for bitslice DES only, and since we
already have MIC intrinsics for it (see my posting referenced above), in
the GSoC project you'd need to work solely with the jumbo tree.
So please try to get jumbo to build for and run on MIC, and report back
in here. Ideally, magnum should merge my MIC support changes referenced
above into jumbo first, but this is not crucial since you clearly have
the experience to start without that as well.

You may also experiment with 1.8.0.4 (from CVS, or I may send you the
tarball), just to have something inbetween your clean 1.8.0 build and
the jumbo build.
Thanks,
Alexander
