Out of curiosity, when it comes to primitives, what could you do under MP in void "atomicInc(shared int*)" that would be problematic?void atomicInc(shared int*) { // i.e. what goes here? }
1. Anything if int* implicitly converts to shared int* (per MP), because then that function is indeed unsafe. 2. Only actual platform-specific implementation bugs otherwise, and these are beyond what `shared` can provide.
