+/* LDCW, the only atomic read-write operation PA-RISC has. *sigh*.
+ We don't explicitly expose that "*a" may be written as reload
+ fails to find a register in class R1_REGS when "a" needs to be
+ reloaded when generating 64-bit PIC code. Instead, we clobber
+ memory to indicate to the compiler that the assembly code reads
+ or writes to items other than those listed in the input and output
+ operands. This may pessimize the code somewhat but __ldcw is
+ usually used within code blocks surrounded by memory barriors. */
