 This should work (might need `x86intrin.h`?).  I'd like to see a
 comparison between ref10, 32 bit donna, and SSE2 donna before we go down
 this path, and for the purposes of the feature branch as is, I will ignore
 the issue for now since doing the integration work in a safe manner is
 more important.

 Will we ever consider removing the ref10 code/fallback stuff?  I don't
 think it particularly makes a difference to how I'm going to do this, but
 I think the portable versions of the donna code is well tested at this
 point.
