FWIW, I'm happy with the concept; I have a couple of minor comments
below.

You removed the 'raw_' atomic generation below, so you can drop the
'raw' parameter and the 'attrs' variable (both here and in the
template)...

... e.g. you can remove '${attrs}' here.

With the 'raw' parameter removed above, the '""' argument can be
dropped.

Any reason to not have the atomic_long_*() API? It seems like an odd
ommision.

Mark.
