Sorry for missing there were open questions about this. I won't uncancel the meeting at this point as I think that will just cause more confusion.

What does GCC currently do about these intrinsics? I think the obvious concern would be that by continuing to alter these intrinsics across releases, we're extending the compatibility issue.

Though without RVV 1.0 being agreed yet, I don't see any options other than just documenting where we're at and noting that more changes are possible (as this change does), or alternatively moving the intrinsics to an experimental flag until they're unexperimental.
