SWAP only affects the x86inc defined macros m#, xm#, ym#, and zm#, so 
those instructions above end up encoded as vbroadcastss zmm2, xmm0 and
vbroadcastss zmm3, xmm1 on WIN64.
In fact, now that i check it they end up as vbroadcastss zmm18, xmm0 and 
vbroadcastss zmm19, xmm1 because x86inc is purposely using the higher 16 
regs with these macros on all targets to avoid having to call vzeroupper 
at the end. This works on unix64 by pure chance because the floats were 
effectively in xmm0 and xmm1 and all calculations then happen on m#, xm# 
and ym#.

So you'll have to duplicate the VBROADCASTSS lines to broadcast xmm2 and 
xmm3 to m0 and m1 on WIN64 instead of using SWAP.
