It is quite straightforward to use the assembler on any host to generate a shared library suitable for use with cd. There is no need or benefit to add the considerable complicaton of having the binary in the J data space as nouns.

Since SSE3 would fail on all CPU lines released before 2004 (and many
released before 2005), this seems to mean that you are suggesting that
J's arithmetic core be doubled -- with a side-by-side implementation of
SSE3 support and non-SSE3 support?

Perhaps more useful would be some documentation on how to construct
and call user-defined machine language code from within J. (I'm thinking something different from cd here -- I'm thinking: let's generate a sequence of literals in J which are the machine code -- how do you call such a thing
as a function from within J?)
