Some notable observations about the problems observed:
Verthash is a mystery, it only produces rejects on ARM even with no targtetted code, only compiled C. The same C source works on x86_64 but not on AArch64. Tried with -O3 & -O2. In all other cases falling back to C was always successful. Verthash data file creation and verification work.

In all other cases falling back to C was always successful. Verthash data file creation and verification work. Verthash has one unique feature in the data-file. No other algo has that and no other algo fails with unoptimized code.
There are a few cases where translating from SSE2 to NEON is diffiult or the workaround kills performance. NEON, being RISC, has no microcode so no programmable shuffle instruction. The only shuffling I can find is sub-vector word & sub-word bit, shift, rotate & reverse. Notably SSE2 can't do bit reversal but can shuffle bytes any which way.
