Hello Thomas,
I gave your stdatomic patchs a try, here's where it fell apart linking.

I used your v2 and the attached reduced set of Dave and my changes. I'll work on this next week if I find a bit of
time,shouldn't be all that hard. I thought I'd update you before then. Also attached is my config script, I sent out
mynotes on a separate email.
I forgot to provide the MSVC compiler/linker versions for posterity, they are:
cl (msvc 19.50.35718 "Microsoft (R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 19.50.35718 for ARM64")
link 14.50.35718.0
best.
