As the grep is part of the call, at least the processing is quite fast. It
could also be extended to other architectures which might not support the
latest and greatest SIMD extensions.

It will just be executed if the "filters" apply to your machine, currently:
- "vfpv3d16" in features
- "armv7a" in features and "neon" not in features

But I understand that this probably doesn't make sense for a "everyday build".
