Also, the GCC __auto_type thing strips _Atomic and const qualifiers but
for some obscure raisin forgets to strip volatile :/

https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-11/msg01378.html

Now, looking at the current GCC source:

https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/blob/97d7270f894395e513667a031a0c309d1819d05e/gcc/c/c-parser.c#L3707

it seems that __typeof__() is supposed to strip all qualifiers from
_Atomic types. That lead me to try:

typeof(_Atomic typeof(p)) __p = (p);

But alas, I still get the same junk you got for ool_store_release() :/
