You're running this on DEC's cc, right? Geometry and float8 are a
matter of fixing the expected output, I think. I'm surprised that the
OID test is failing for you --- it passes for me on that Debian box.
Could you step thro

Hm. Your second version might incorrectly appear to work because it's
not checking for stq_c failure. The first one loops until it s

It would be interesting to see the assembly code that those macros
expand to.

Hi,
I missed the beginning of this thread. Are you doing this for Tru64 or
for Linux? For Tru64 there are macros in /usr/include/alpha/builtins.h
which do the job.
Doing this in assembler is totally non-trivial, as most versions are
only liable to work on single-processor machines and no
