The comment in that file says: // Low-level functions for atomic operations: x86, x < 4 version -*- C++ -*- Is that incorrect? Hmm, it's the same as the 486 version, so the comment is wrong. This will be fixed in gcc 3.3 (at a performance penalty; we need to think about providing the i486 version also). -- Daniel Jacobowitz MontaVista Software Debian GNU/Linux Developer
