simde fails to build on 10.6.8

[barracuda156]

The port is broken on Rosetta, and likely on <10.7 in general.

1. Old Apple gcc is not supported: ​https://github.com/simd-everywhere/simde

Should be added to blacklist.

2. Even with gcc12 it still fails on Rosetta with numerous errors. Logs attached.

all these PRId8 etc are fixed by adding those stdc format macros, etc, as you recall from that port a few months ago we fixed w catap.

add those defs, then see where you get.

Added the flag, build is running, so far promising. If succeeds, gonna make a PR. Thank you!

Hi barracuda156, any update on this? I don't have access to 10.6, so I have no way of trying to troubleshoot this issue.

not likely an sse test would work out when building for ppc…

Ahaha, fair enough. Perhaps should be patched to exclude it on ppc and aarch64.
