here is how that function ended up looking like here (with Peter's v7,
which should be close to what Chris tried, looking at his crash dump):

the "lock cmpxchg" ended up being inlined properly at ffffffff81491376,
and the whole assembly sequence looks pretty compact to me.
That does not let GCC off the hook though, and i'd be the last one to
defend it when it messes up.
