What I really want is memory order emulation. X86 as strong memory order guarantees, ARM has much weaker guarantees. Which means the multi-threaded queue I'm working on works all the time on development x86 machine even if I forget to put in the correct memory-order schematics, but it might or might not work on ARM (which is what my of my users have). (I am in the habit of running all my stress tests 1000 times before I'm willing to send them out, but that doesn't mean the code is correct, it means it works on x86 and passed my review which might miss something)
