I do have a critique for your description:

> Compilers that support these intrinsics must define the D_Volatile version identifier. Compilers that do not may support them, but programmers should not rely on it.

I read this as meaning:
Compilers that support volatile intrinsics must define D_Volatile.
Compilers can support volatile intrinsics without defining D_Volatile.

And I see a contradiction ;)
