From Doug Lea's TODO list:

8. Exploiting new STM APIs
    Probably, there will be new intrinsics support (in the absence
    of much needed standardization, placed in  xxxxx .misc.Unsafe) for underlying
    future hardware (and current software emulation) for software
    transactional memory. Hard to say exactly what yet, but these
    should minimally include some way to do n-way CAS (maybe for only
    for n=2, 3, 4) which we might be brave enough to exploit in new code.
