How about we  #error out if targets do *not* define some of these
defaults in libstdc++  ? There are far more ports with weak memory
models, and the defaults for _GLIBCXX_READ/WRITE_BARRIER also appear
unsafe . I was toying with a patch like that to force targets to
define this sort of thing but I need to read more of configure.host
before I make up my mind.
