If the compiler on the oldest system we run on supports c11, then updating
that line seems reasonable.
We have a lot of statistical counters that get bumped with ++ or +=n. I'd
like to switch them to use a macro that uses stdatomic.h. If we want to
support systems that don't support stdatomic, we can hack the macros to do
it the old/current way.
