Backpedaling on that one.

With automatic atomic loads and stores, one could accidentally write this:

     shared int x;
     x = x + 1; /* atomic load + atomic != atomic increment */

Easy to miss the problem, because the code looks so innocent.

But when the atomic loads and stores must be spelled out it would look 
like in my original post:

     shared int x;
     atomicStore(x, atomicLoad(x) + 1);

Way more obvious that the code isn't actually thread-safe.

So now I'm leaning towards requiring the verbose version.
