For these optimizations, it's tested at compile time. These are tiny 
macros spread widely throughout the codebase, so runtime testing is 
infeasible.

As we move to more targeted optimization of specific functions, we will 
include runtime CPU detection, just as we have in other codecs.

Patches welcome, of course :).
