--  This unit provides public 'View' data types from/to which private vector
--  representations can be converted via Altivec.Conversions. This allows
--  convenient access to individual vector elements and provides a simple way
--  to initialize vector objects.

--  Accessing vector contents with direct memory overlays should be avoided
--  because actual vector representations may vary across configurations, for
--  instance to accomodate different target endianness.

--  The natural representation of a vector is an array indexed by vector
--  component number, which is materialized by the Varray type definitions
--  below. The 16byte alignment constraint is unfortunately sometimes not
--  properly honored for constant array aggregates, so the View types are
--  actually records enclosing such arrays.
