Yes, on my todo list (however might take some time until I get to it).
I'm focusing on z14 right now because next-gen distributions will most
probably require at least z14 hw, so we're prepared for that.

I'm still wrapping my head around how to best implement the crazy VECTOR
FP MINIMUM / MAXIMUM stuff in the least ugly way (expressing all cases
via if/else/switch is just horribly error-prone).
