+; these is a PowerPC/Altivec assembly version which requires bps<=16 (or actual
+; bps<=15 for mid-side coding, since that uses an extra bit)
+
+; these should be fast; the inner loop is unrolled (it takes no more than
+; 3*(order%4) instructions, all of which are arithmetic), and all of the
+; coefficients and all relevant history stay in registers, so the outer loop
+; has only one load from memory (the residual)
+
+; I haven't yet run this through simg4, so there may be some avoidable stalls,
+; and there may be a somewhat more clever way to do the outer loop
+
+; the branch mechanism may prevent dynamic loading; I still need to examine
+; this issue, and there may be a more elegant method
