<h1><atomic> design</h1>
<!--*********************************************************************-->
<p>
This is more of a synopsis than a true description. The compiler supplies all
of the intrinsics as described below. This list of intrinsics roughly parallels
the requirements of the C and C++ atomics proposals. The C and C++ library
imlpementations simply drop through to these intrinsics. Anything the platform
does not support in hardware, the compiler arranges for a (compiler-rt) library
call to be made which will do the job with a mutex, and in this case ignoring
the memory ordering parameter.

If desired the intrinsics taking a single <tt>mem_ord</tt> parameter can default
this argument to 5.
</p>
<p>
If desired the intrinsics taking two ordering parameters can default
<tt>mem_success</tt> to 5, and <tt>mem_failure</tt> to <tt>mem_success</tt>.
