From abe76789f8e7ce61b357f693eaed5b28feab5ce2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH] Fix build break around __atomic_*() with GCC<4.7

The __atomic_* GCC primitives were introduced in GCC 4.7, but Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.x (for example) provides GCC 4.4. Tweak the current code to
use the (most conservative) __sync_synchronize() primitive provided by those
older GCC versions.

(Really, no __atomic or __sync operations are needed here at all, since POSIX
4.12 "Memory Synchronization" says pthread_mutex_lock() and
pthread_mutex_unlock() "synchronize memory with respect to other threads"...)
