Spinning...  Ugh!  Anyway, why would "spinning" change anything to the soundness
(or not!) or the algorithm, on SMP?

I designed the algorithm with single processor (or strong memory model) in mind,
 so as to avoid having to think about the whole SMP mess (remember that this was
before the lately introduced fix to the Java memory model).

I would rather like a discussion of the SMP requirements of the algorithm, and
how they can be met.  I rather dislike black magic solutions, such as some
semi-random busy wait.
