Do we need all volatile casts that force the different code paths for 32 and 64 bit? In my experiments on Power it worked without them...

Should we introduce KMP_COMPARE_AND_STORE_RETPTR for this?

This is the only place in the code where CAS on pointer is interested in exact return value (to perform lock-less shared allocation), so the new macro won't help much I think. So I'd vote to leave it as is.

Forgot to answer this point. The second cast to volatile (in while statement) used to force the compiler to re-read the value of doacross_flags pointer at each iteration. The first cast (in CAS statement) just repeats the same cast encoded into the macros. So it is not technically necessary, but used here just in case we may some time decide to change the macros, and then this cast will work.
