Do the simd functions have fallback functionally for unsupported hardware? Is that planned? Or is that something I'd be writing into my own Vector structures?

I am thinking more and more that it'll have fallback for unsupported hardware (since the same code will need to run for CTFE), but as well just pipe unsupported platforms through that code.

But it probably won't be as efficient as possible for those platforms, so the jury is still out. It might be better to encourage them to do it properly.

Also, I noticed Phobos now includes a "etc" library, do you have plans to eventually make a general purpose higher-level Linear systems library in that?

I don't plan to. If I end out using one in my personal code, I'll share it though.
