While we could do this on i?86/x86_64 now, it sounds better to do it in the
generic code (folding or expansion), but for that we need to wait for the
extended sync builtins that are currently brewing on cxx-mem-model branch
(because __sync_fetch_and_{and,or} are full barriers, while __sync_test_and_set
is not).
