Unfortunately, it is common, and will remain so, that the Bit
manipulations are not enabled at compilation time. This is an official
policy for Debian ports in general (though they do not support RISC-V
officially as of yet) to stick to the minimal target baseline, which
does not include the B extension or even its Zbb subset.

For inline helpers (CPOP, REV8), compiler builtins (CTZ, CLZ) or
even plain C code (MIN, MAX, MINU, MAXU), run-time detection seems
impractical. But at least it can work for the byte-swap DSP functions.
