Hi Jason,
Other ISAs don't support vector registers at this time; they would have to 
undergo some significant rewrites for this code to affect them.

Sounds good. I'm not very familiar with that code, so I'll defer to others'
judgement.

It would be nice if we had some tests that exercised this code. Especially for 
non-ARM ISAs (mostly I'm talking about x86). Have you done any tests, or can 
you think of something simple that I could use to test this out? I (well, Sean, 
who's working with us this summer) have some time to do testing, if there's 
something easy for us to do.

Thanks,
Jason
