You'll find almost all of those in OpenCL.

I know. I want to use them on the CPU, without having to deal with a big runtime system like OpenCL.

OpenCL is still missing the vector width polymorphism. The others are more or less covered.

This is a matter of language standardization and some implementation work. I'm not aware of anyone working on this.
