    For function-multiversioning, the intrinsic headers in both gcc and clang have logic to take care of selecting targets. You also don't need to do dispatch manually when writing manual optimizations--the same function name with different targets is supported and dispatches automatically.

    Even if in recent years after tbat post they added support for C11 and C17, minus some stuff like aligned mallocs.
