Is there any way to detect SSE? Also, are you going to add MMX/3DNow/SSE
instructions to asm.e? That would be really neat (though I currently can
only use MMX, unfortunaty). I've tried using NASM to generate the MMX
opcodes, but it seems to use some different segmentation or something
from Euphoria (I don't know too much about segments, except that they
seem like a pain), and it doesn't work.
