So, that suggests that inlining these operations probably isn't very
profitable.  In that case, it seems like we could put these routines
into libgcc, and just have libstdc++ call them.  And, that if
__exchange_and_add is showing up on the top of the profile, the fix
probably isn't inlining -- it's to work out a way to make less use of
atomic operations.
