C++11 does not guarantee that loads / stores are atomic for any variable. Using C++11, we force atomicity for the log level - but do not provide any guarantee about ordering or visibility. Without this, setting and getting the log level results in undefined behavior. Undefined behavior results in illegal C++11. On any known processor and platform, this should be a no-op; however, the code is now conforming C++11.
