FWIW, the "Get OxCaml" page actually says that SIMD on ARM isn't supported yet. If it actually works it would be worth removing that from the known issues list https://oxcaml.org/get-oxcaml/

Indeed, it says that because we don't have a library of NEON intrinsics (like ocaml_simd_sse) yet, but the extension itself works.

Ah, that clears it up a bit. Thanks! Looking forward to all of this. (For the interested readers, here's the SSE library: https://github.com/janestreet/ocaml_simd/tree/with-extension...)
