The problem I see here is that with ~5-6 operations, we will end up
having 20*5 = 100 headers only for this. Can we combine these in a
single header file instead ? local.h wasn't bad in this respect.
Also, separating all these in sub-files will make it a bit difficult to
pinpoint errors that would arise from using a bad combination of, e.g.
generic add with a non-protected read or set.
Thanks,
Mathieu
