I agree, in principle. However, sorry, I don't feel like doing that, 
it's a non trivial change, because *anything* related to the atomic 
builtins is non-trivial. So... If you volunteer to do that, patches 
welcome, you can count on my to thorough and promptly review and help, 
but if you drop the ball, I will simply enable the C++0x feature on the 
safe subset of platforms, for 4.4.0, at least.

Paolo.
