The reason I suggested a hold to Sander on account of the atomics is that we have a bunch of PRs relating to building atomics on Solaris that haven't been (yet) resolved. I believe we could rethink how we are building the atomics to make it a bit less troublesome. I'd rather see us use CPU-based defines rather than OS-based defines for those platforms where the OS is of no help (Linux, Solaris, and old FreeBSD). Personally, I don't care to spend any more time on the atomics code. If someone wants to see this included, I heartily suggest that it should get fixed soon. -- justin
