same as FreeBSD.. which make it useless for reference counting IMHO

thats not where the race occurs.
you've gone and decremented it in  atomic way with your system call.
you then get swapped out something goes and does something to the
variable
(say increment it)
you then get swapped back in.
and return *mem.
but you've lost the decrement.

the unix implementation works as it locks ALL access to the variable
with a mutex the problem is you've only locked the un-implemennted
versions
