Yes, I think the dyslexia bit in my brain has been set the last few days :/

Thanks, I'm thinking of moving this to tunables as glibc.tune.hwcap_mask
(not glibc.ld.hwcap_mask since it is not necessarily an ld.so thing -
hwcap mask can control far more than dynamic linker behaviour) so that
will bring both static and dynamic binaries on par.  Do you want me to
fix the issue first and then do the tunable or is it fine to just add
the tunable?
