I think the idea was that since one (old) architecture does not have atomic
ints there might be more.
Since I really could not care less about 32bit sparc, the more interesting
question would be; is it possible that non atomic ints will crop up in future
hardware designs?
To me it just sounds, really, really, really, improbable.

Doing audio on a 32 bit sparc.... mmm. Why not buy a spend 150 euro
and by a 2-3 ghz intel/amd machine new? Does someone have a good reference on this? I
think the writes just
are not atomic, but you can use some tricks [1] to implement atomic
behaviour by spinning until the operation succeeds.
Do we still care about 32 bit sparc?
