-JACK uses some low-level machine operations for thread-safe updates to
-shared memory.  A low-level implementation of @c <sysdeps/atomicity.h>
-is provided for every target processor architecture.  There is also a
-generic implementation using POSIX spin locks, but that is not a good

-The GCC package provides versions that work on most modern hardware.
-We've tried to keep things as close to the original as possible, while
-removing a bunch of os-specific files that didn't seem relevant.  A
-primary goal has been to avoid changing the CPU-dependent @c
-<sysdeps/atomicity.h> headers.
