garbled 2ba84f0f9e Add tuned powerpc assembler written by IBM and released under a 3-clause
BSD Lisc as part of the perflib project.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ppcperflib/

Tested the new functions with microbenchmarks on a number of different
CPU types, and  found that most cpus either benefited greatly, or were
unaffected.  Primarily G4 CPU's were unaffected, and all others showed
speedups.  My 7044 (POWER3) went from a 70.6 to a 73.2 (thats good) in
bytebench with a complete release built with these.  Also passed
regression tests.
