yes, it happens because the arm code is incomplete and bogus. I did the arm64 code first and then ported it to arm. This function uses arm64 specific instructions and thus needed a port to arm. The arm version misses several computation steps. I guess I trusted the results of the unit tests and didn't looked at gf_unit output on arm. I'll send a fix tomorrow.
