I'm not sure but I wonder if the PA atomic functions aren't
the ones that reserve a specific value as the lock value.
I.e., they're not completely general as on all the other
architectures. [...]

That is correct, PA-RISC atomic instructions set use 0 as a special value. But I do not know if stdcxx choice of names is related to that.
