Hi Everyone,
I'm testing Nettle 3.7.2 on a PowerMac with OS X 10.5 . I added -maltivec to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS. I enabled Altivec builds with --enable-power-altivec and --enable-fat.
Auditing the dylib it appears Altivec was not engaged:
$ otool -tV /usr/local/lib/libnettle.dylib | grep perm 0001f124 b _nettle_sha3_permute _nettle_sha3_permute: 000204ec bl _nettle_sha3_permute
I think there's something a bit sideways here.
