I am not yet sure about refcounts, but local_t itself is used in couple of places. >As for atomic_long_t there's very few, I'd leave them be for now, Ok, I have started a list on them to keep track, but we need to do them also. There is no reason for them not to be refcounts, since so far the ones I see are classical refcounts. >and I couldn't find a single atomic64_t refcount user. I will check when I get over the atomic_t and atomic_long.
