The only question is whether anyone is using it; since vector icmp is
effectively unusable, the only ways to compare vectors without
vicmp/vfcmp are by scalarizing them or using platform-specific
intrinsics.  Either way, it's probably best to wait a few days to see
if anyone objects.

It would be nice to include testcases for the relevant type-safety bugs.
