i would be surprised if this affected normal arm64 users since
it worked for me on arm64, just not on arm64eb.  the code was
using different conditionals to choose conditional code, and
was selecting two methods for arm64eb.

this error:

looks very strange to me.  without more data about why it failed
to load something i have no idea.
