@DamonFool I appreciate your efforts on this but i want to hold back on that 
issue and follow up very quickly after
integration of this PR. This change has been through an extremely long and 
arduous review process, and i want to stick
to what was reviewed and not ask reviewers to go through further cycles on what 
overall is a very large change.
Unfortunately this change is in a holding pattern waiting for the CSR to be 
approved thereby increasing the window
where we might find further issues (that if we had already integrated may have 
been dealt with separately perhaps in a
less timely fashion with respect to that integration). Unless an issue is 
extremely severe I think we should queue them
up in `panama-vector/vectorIntrinsics` (there is at least one more for ARM SVE 
that is queued up). Since the issue you
describe effects one instruction, for one type, on AVX512, its impact is 
limited and will be mitigated by a quick
follow up.
