Hi,
I'm trying to add support for the POPCNT instruction, which exists on
some modern CPUs (e.g. Nehalem). The idea is to add a popCnt# primop
which would generate a POPCNT instruction when compiling with
-msse4.2. If the user didn't specified -msse4.2, the primop should
fall back to some other im

If dynamic linking doesn't hurt performance (too much).
