#3557: SIMD operations in GHC.Prim

Os: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
It would be nice to have support for vector unit (MMX, SSE, AltiVec, and
so on) operations in GHC. Currently Data Parallel Haskell cannot utilize
vector units due to GHC's lack of support.
Those vector operations could be nicely used to get e.g. stereo signal
processing for the price of mono signal processing.
Maybe those operations could be added to GHC.Prim, or because there are so
many, to a new module, GHC.Prim.Vector.
