Hej, all.
I have been compiling on aarch64.
Here I also use double-word CAS, via __atomic.
As far as I know, all aarch64 systems offer double word CAS (i.e.
128-bit CAS).
However, it seems GCC also here as on x64_86 now requires linking to
libatomic.
I thought this was x86_64 only, and existed there because of the initial
Opertons lacking cmpxchg16b.
