I developed them on an Athlon, and confirmed that they were also
faster than the current implementations on a PIV and Athlon64 in
32 bit mode.  While I haven't tested them on older Intel, VIA, 
Transmeta, etc. machines; I would expect them to be faster for 
the simple reason that the new code does less "work".

I've been using this code in both libc and libkern without problem
since I submitted it.
