However we don't really need to discuss this anyway, since I don't think either runAtomically or atomicallyModifyIORef need to be in the FFI standard. I'm quite happy to leave this open.
As usual, I disagree. I think the FFI spec would be incomplete if it provided Haskell finalizers but no mechanism to write them safely. -- Alastair
