Atomically modifies a pointer to point to a new structure.
The Structure oldstr_ptr
is pointing to is freed and newstr
is
taken ownership over.
Either newstr
and the value pointed to by oldstr_ptr
may be null
.
It is a programming error if both newstr
and the value pointed to by oldstr_ptr
refer to the same, non-%NULL
structure.
