[bind10-dev] Lock-free data structures

Hello

I stumped onto this thing:
http://liblfds.org/

It says it can do lock-free data structures (including queue) on many OSes and
processors. That could be useful for our resolver work (possibly on the
landlords-peasants model).

Also, the licence seems compatible:

| There is no license. You are free to use this software in any way, for any
| purpose. Go forth and create wealth!

Of course, I expect we'll hit an OS or processor where it does not work. But I
guess we could wrap it in some thin layer and replace it with std::queue with
mutex on such combination.

With regards
