Also worth mentioning... for C++ fans out there...
The ringbuffer shipped with libjack is a C port of the
RingBuffer<T> container from libpbd in Ardour (written by
Paul Davis and Benno Senoner).
This implementation uses the glib atomic ops and some glib
types. Since my app doesn't currently use glib, I was
looking at replacing those with some equivalent. That's
partially how this thread got started. :-)
