Hello, I've been investigating some failures on Mac OS X, ppc concerning shared_ptr. One of the things that has struck me is that in boost/ detail/sp_counted_base_gcc_ppc.hpp, the __asm__ block in atomic_decrement is decorated with __volatile__, but the __asm__ blocks in atomic_increment and atomic_conditional_increment are not. The failure I'm seeing disappears when the __volatile__ attribute is added in the two missing places. Would this be a proper fix to boost/ detail/sp_counted_base_gcc_ppc.hpp? Should boost/detail/ sp_counted_base_gcc_x86.hpp be treated similarly? Thanks, Howard
