Here you will find downloadable versions of the library, at this moment in source form. Soon, a Debian package will be available, which will also be part of the main archive. The code compiles cleanly on GCC 3.4 and GCC 4.0.

For the impatient amongst you, make sure you set

CFLAGS="-O3 -maltivec -mabi=altivec -funroll-loops -DHAVE_ALTIVEC_H"

to compile for max performance.

Also, the library is now hosted as a Project on Alioth. However the CVS repository on the project is not used, only the SVN repository on svn.debian.org. WebSVN interface here.

NOTE: This is for testing/profiling purposes right now. A couple of functions are known to be buggy (eg. strcpy, memmove) so DO NOT try to LD_PRELOAD this library!!! I hope that this will be possible soon, when all functions have been implemented and thoroughly tested.
