--- Comment #1 from Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton <lkcl at lkcl.net> ---
clarifying the characteristics and requirements here (edit as required)

1 SVP64 embeds v3.0B scalar instructions
  as a hardware-level for-loop
2 implications: the scalar instruction
  needs to be "preserved" i.e. obvious
  from the SV-augmentation
3 the SV-augmentation must pass through
  gcc macro parsing without interference
  in that parsing
4 the SV-augmentation must meet binutils
  parsing requirements or at least not
  need significant changes to binutils
5 numerical-only register numbering should
  be possible
