Description
> Doug Lea wants the HotSpot work for JSR-166 to not fall off our radar.
> JSR-166 is NOT the New Memory Model, that's already come to pass.
> JSR-166 is bunch of things that build on the New MM to allow highly
> concurrent abstract data types.  He needs a reference implementation
> to get the changes approved and "we're it".
>
> In particular he needs:
> (1) AtomicLong class to be cloned for ints & oops.  Basically,
>     compare-exchange for ints and pointers.  For us, it's just more
>     of the same stuff done already for Random.nextInt.
