I am also running void linux, but Zig does detect the right version: ```zig pub const os = Os{ .tag = .linux, .version_range = .{ .linux = .{ .range =...

Excuses, i hadn't built the most recent Zig compiler. It now also detects 2.17 on my system, so this seems to be a regression.

Does the latter problem mean Zig should search the other places like DT_RPATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, /lib and /usr/lib similar to ld?

The problem with v4xf32 and f32x4 though is that the compiler still needs to generate calls to std.meta.Vector (or a long chain of builtin calls like with error set returns).

Following this reasoning the modifier could simply be placed right of the array: `simd [N]T`

The question becomes then what the range of pointee types is that a vector can consist of. If its the same range as the regular primitives, then i suppose that...

Thanks for the detailed report. I think that a the library itself may be built in C++17 mode soon, so that should be an easy fix. Do you know why...
