By "universal compare/exchange", I think he means some atomic operation
primitive [1] that will work on all the supported architectures?
I was wanting to implement something like tbb::concurrent_queue [2] to
stream data between LuaJIT states in different threads. I haven't
tackled it yet, but will probably bind a C library for the atomics.
