    Revert upstream libcxxrt commit which can cause hangs on i386
    
    This reverts upstream commit fd484be:
    
      Atomics cleanup (#11)
    
      We need to test exception specifiers but they're gone in C++17 so
      compile the tests with an older version of the standard.
    
      Rewrite the guard logic to be more idiomatic C++ and more
      comprehensible and make sure that atomics are used where necessary.
    
    It looks like there are some corner cases in the i386 and/or 32-bit
    atomics handling, which can make __cxa_guard_acquire() hang in certain
    situations.
    
    Reported by:    antoine
    Obtained from:  https://github.com/libcxxrt/libcxxrt/commit/fd484be
    Fixes:          56aaed388b0a
    MFC after:      2 weeks
    
    (cherry picked from commit 2548237983c47c61601b883bb9d6c9a803ef8ce4)
