-- Natools.References implements reference-counted smart pointer to any     --
-- type of objects.                                                         --
-- This is a basic implementation that does not support weak references,    --
-- but uses Intel assembly code to ensure task safety.                      --
-- Beware though that there is still no guarantee on the task-safety of the --
-- operations performed on the referred objects.                            --
