Supporting PowerPC/AltiVec on macOS is no longer necessary, even if the Mac/G5 is still running having `-faltivec` or replacing it with the new AltiVec flag `-maltivec` wouldn't increase that much performance without raw SIMD. note: the flag was enabled on non-intel platforms which causes fatal build errors on macOS/arm64.
