I think, in case if IFUNC is not available (i.e., outside glibc), redirection 
is still possible by introducing a regular function pointer there. Yes, it is 
an extra cost but better than nothing (+ consistent behavior on all platforms), 
probably will not add too much anyway because there is already a performance 
hit by going to libatomic.
