Only x86* is supported

[ggardet]

Currently, only x86* is supported due to SSE. It would be nice to enable it for other archs too.

Agreed! @mimi1vx any idea how much work that would be? Use the C without optimizations on generic platforms, and make SSE2 conditional on non-x86 platforms?

If this is still important to anyone - it was to us, since we're using password - we've got a fork over here that binds to Tarsnap's system library instead.

The Tarsnap library has all the necessary conditional compilation to make it cross-platform, so it can be used on at least some non-x86 machines.
