operations in ghc-prim. I am working on a fix for powerpc64 and
powerpc64le.
> Phab:3984 improves the situation a lot on an old PowerMac. The segfault
occurs only on every other run where before this patch I would see a
segfault on almost all build attempts.

affects all platforms that are using the fallback functions
`hs_atomicread*` and `hs_atomicwrite*`. I will create a separate ticket
for that.
What is the referenced Phab:3934 ? it is pointing to
https://phabricator.haskell.org/3984 that is a "404 not found" page
What is the reference to the separate ticket supposed to be created ?
