As I repeatedly have said, I am waiting for an answer from the
libstdc++-v3 developers about the definitions of the atomicity interfaces
(long versus int). Only then will it be clear whether support for
releases prior to AIX 4.3 should pun the long pointer into an int pointer
(because both are 32-bits in 32-bit mode) or whether the interfaces should
utilize int uniformly to avoid the 32/64 ambiguity.
