I'm wondering if the OP's configuration doesn't support LWARX mutex hints
(see the comment for USE_PPC_LWARX_MUTEX_HINT in pg_config_manual.h).
We do have a configure-time check for that, but maybe it's not working
for him?

Without any info as to the compiler or assembler in use, nor a look at the
failing bits of assembly code, we're just guessing.
