Dependance on assembly would be bad; CE runs on a bunch of different processors.

Siodffi looks pretty promising.  However, now that I think of it, this problem has already been
solved for Pocket Scheme (perhaps as a result of siodffi), and source code is available.  I think
I'll dig into that this weekend, life permitting.
