That's because SSSE3 instructions are not enabled by default, so
the compiler isn't allowed to generate the PSHUFB instruction.
Some options you have:
1. Set a cpu that has ssse3, e.g. compile with `-mcpu=native`
2. Enable SSSE3: compile with `-mattr=+ssse3`
3. Perhaps best for your case, enable SSSE3 for that function,
importing the ldc.attributes module and using the
@target("ssse3") UDA on that function.
