// to be reached but without SSE2 a call is emitted, leading to infinite recursion.

// While replacing [u128; 2] with (u128, u128) fixes the issues it degrades performance
// severely. Likewise, removing c32() has a lesser but still significant impact. Instead the
// [u128; 2] case is only enabled when SSE2 is present.
