2013-02-21	Use dirty read instead of union which can be unsafe on some platforms	Rickard Green

2012-06-18	Fix faulty use of thread progress in handle_aux_work()	Rickard Green
	As an optimization old thread progress data was kept and used in handle_aux_work() in erl_process.c. This could cause memory to be deallocated at a later time than intended, which is quite harmless. This has, however, now been fixed.
2012-02-19	Misc memory barrier fixes	Rickard Green

2011-12-07	Fix cleanup of elements in lock-free queues	Rickard Green

2011-11-13	Implement generic lock-free queue	Rickard Green
	The implementation of an ERTS internal, generic, many to one, lock-free queue for communication between threads. The many to one scenario is very common in ERTS, so it can be used in a lot of places in the future. Changing to this queue from a lock based queue, however, often requires some redesigning. This since we have often used the lock of the queue to protect other information too.
