	FWIW - the bogus and over-granular threading approach in existing
LibreOffice code is something that needs beating to death.
LibreOffice threading: "inspired by the java synchronized" keyword is a
nightmare.

	So - I'm with Kohei mostly - lets not do over-expensive,
non-inline-able nonsense atomic operations when we don't need to.

	HTH,

		Michael.
