AVX2-64 code seems to be broken

vstakhov commented 8 years ago

I've tried to compile the code on OSX system. However, the compilation failed with the following error:

clang -cc1as: fatal error: error in backend: 32-bit absolute addressing is not supported in 64-bit mode

I've tried to fix it by switching to %rip addressing applying patch like this one: https://gist.github.com/vstakhov/37442eaf04ebfdd315e0 but despite of compiling it caused core dump:

Other extensions work fine after fuzz testing.

Looks like #3 corrects this issue.
