ARM Ltd provides C reference, ARM11 assembler and Cortex-A8 assembler
implementations. I did not try the assembler versions, and they might
require the ARM toolchain.

The licensing terms are as follows. I do not know if they are compatible
with GPL redistribution, in any version. Evidently, some the requirements
are GPL-incompatible restrictions, but it seems like they do not carry over
to sub-licensees. Use at your own legal risk.
