-  </p>  
-  <p class='done'>
-    Rewrite x86_64/sha3-permute.asm. Moves between xmm registers and
-    regular registers kill performance at least on some AMD
-    processors. (Not rewritten, only moves changed to go via memory).
-  </p>
-  <p class='done'>
-    Include UMAC. Needs a serious effort to produce test vectors.

-    Make the assembly ALIGN-macro non-logarithmic, reusing the m4 log2
