This module is only partially implemented and seems to conflict with
using std.concurrency for concurrency stuff. Should it be removed?
I'm not seeing where it conflicts. Concurrency is about message
passing, right? I see std.atomics as an analog for C++0x atomics,
which gives very low level operations for memory fences and such.
I added all the TDPL atomics stuff in core.atomic. I could have put
it in std.atomics instead I suppose, but that would have prevented its
use in druntime and it seems potentially too low-level for phobos
anyway. A bit like how std.concurrency uses spawn() as a
user-friendly wrapper around core.thread.
Sounds right to me. Dump std.atomics.
