Interop with other stacks and runtimes is a massive advantage with reference counting ( or non relocating GCs) ...and i dont just mean calling c but far more importantly c / C++ /Java calling bitc.
Also if you still target the CLR i asume you will just ignore / stop the GC and build your own minimal GC for the cycles ( LLVM and static compile becomes more attractive) re last post not LOCK CMPXCHG but obviously LOCK INCL / LOCK DECL wrote some locks last year and CMPXCHG has burned too deep... the pain... ..
