+ * it must synchronize access to the volatile data within the entries.
+ * On Windows and where otherwise supported by GCC, lightweight "lock-free"

No those functions are only thread-safe in
combination with the SYNCHRONIZE macro
(see comment in source code).

Is this thread safe?  Could the thread after reading *mem be context 
switched out, another thread calls synced_add(), then the first thread 
does its add and writes the *mem?
