[fpc-devel] ARM/AARCH64 work

[J. Gareth Moreton]

Indeed. I'm reusing the code that generates 
the magic constant for me and any additional 
flags. I've also fixed the bug that caused 
the failure in my test. Just doing some 
final cheeks and improving my bench test.

It might be possible to make more code cross 
platform later on. I'mm not due.
