 Code Organisation
 -----------------
 
 The various `mpn' subdirectories contain machine-dependent code, written
 in C or assembler.  The `mpn/generic' subdirectory contains default
 code, used when there's no machine-specific version of a particular
 file.
 
    Each `mpn' subdirectory is for an ISA family.  Generally 32-bit and
 64-bit variants in a family cannot share code and have separate
 directories.  Within a family further subdirectories may exist for CPU
 variants.
 
    In each directory a `nails' subdirectory may exist, holding code with
 nails support for that CPU variant.  A `NAILS_SUPPORT' directive in each
 file indicates the nails values the code handles.  Nails code only
 exists where it's faster, or promises to be faster, than plain code.
 There's no effort put into nails if they're not going to enhance a
 given CPU.
