-implemented via compiler intrinsics (if the underlying host is
-capable) or by library fallbacks.</p><p>Compiler intrinsics (builtins) are always preferred. However, as
-the compiler builtins for atomics are not universally implemented,
-using them directly is problematic, and can result in undefined
-function calls. (An example of an undefined symbol from the use
-of <code class="code">__sync_fetch_and_add</code> on an unsupported host is a
-missing reference to <code class="code">__sync_fetch_and_add_4</code>.)
-</p><p>In addition, on some hosts the compiler intrinsics are enabled
-conditionally, via the <code class="code">-march</code> command line flag. This makes
-usage vary depending on the target hardware and the flags used during
-compile.

-Incomplete/inconsistent. This is only C++11.

-If builtins are possible for bool-sized integral types,
-<code class="code">ATOMIC_BOOL_LOCK_FREE</code> will be defined.
-If builtins are possible for int-sized integral types,
-<code class="code">ATOMIC_INT_LOCK_FREE</code> will be defined.
-</p><p>For the following hosts, intrinsics are enabled by default.

On
-non-ancient x86 hardware, <code class="code">-march=native</code> usually does the
-trick.</p><p> For hosts without compiler intrinsics, but with capable
-hardware, hand-crafted assembly is selected. This is the case for the following hosts:

-the thread interface for GCC. This layer is called "gthread," and is
-comprised of one header file that wraps the host's default thread layer with
-a POSIX-like interface.
-</p><p> The file &lt;gthr-default.h&gt; points to the deduced wrapper for
-the current host. In libstdc++ implementation files,
-&lt;bits/gthr.h&gt; is used to select the proper gthreads file.
-</p><p>Within libstdc++ sources, all calls to underlying thread functionality
-use this layer. More detail as to the specific interface can be found in the source <a class="link" href="http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/latest-doxygen/a00883_source.html" target="_top">documentation</a>.
-</p><p>By design, the gthread layer is interoperable with the types,
-functions, and usage found in the usual &lt;pthread.h&gt; file,
-including <code class="code">pthread_t</code>, <code class="code">pthread_once_t</code>, <code class="code">pthread_create</code>,
-etc.
