https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/nec/vector_engine is an ISA running on
accelerator card one can compile for using LLVM. VEOS presents an Linux
user space to the program. binutils and similar tools are compiled for
this ISA and distributed as a rpm package by NEC, so i've ran gnu code
on that ISA.
I'd ask you to add support for this so i one day might be able to build
programs out of the box for the second hand VectorEngine under my desk.
Patch below.
