    Description

      As Travis suggests in his comment on STDCXX-722, we should make use of XLC++ built-ins the same way we are taking advantage of gcc intrinsics.

      The book Built-in functions for POWER and PowerPC architectures outlines the set of built-in functions available in the IBM XLC++ compiler on PowerPC.
