I did check with simple script (see attachment) under Linux in cross-compiler
libstdc++ build directory (therefore i586-pc-msdosdjgpp-objdump)

For gcc-4.8.2 I'm getting:

[andris AT ap libstdc++-v3]$ sh x1
==================================================
./src/c++98/atomicity.o
    8:   f0 0f c1 02             lock xadd %eax,(%edx)
==================================================
./libsupc++/eh_ptr.o
   20:   f0 0f c1 43 a0          lock xadd %eax,-0x60(%ebx)
   11:   f0 0f c1 50 a0          lock xadd %edx,-0x60(%eax)
==================================================
./libsupc++/eh_throw.o
   12:   f0 0f c1 50 c0          lock xadd %edx,-0x40(%eax)
==================================================
./libsupc++/eh_tm.o
    f:   f0 0f c1 03             lock xadd %eax,(%ebx)

for last gcc snapshot I have built (gcc-4.9.0-20131206)

[andris AT ap libstdc++-v3]$ sh search486.sh
==================================================
./libsupc++/cp-demangle.o
     ce64:       0f cc                   bswap  %esp
==================================================
./src/c++98/atomicity.o
    8:   f0 0f c1 02             lock xadd %eax,(%edx)
==================================================
./libsupc++/eh_ptr.o
   21:   f0 0f c1 43 a0          lock xadd %eax,-0x60(%ebx)
   11:   f0 0f c1 50 a0          lock xadd %edx,-0x60(%eax)
==================================================
./libsupc++/eh_throw.o
   12:   f0 0f c1 50 c0          lock xadd %edx,-0x40(%eax)
==================================================
./libsupc++/eh_tm.o
    f:   f0 0f c1 03             lock xadd %eax,(%ebx)

Additionally atomicity is used for exampple in libstdc++-v3/src/c++98/ios_init.cc

xadd is available on 486+, so libstdc++ is unusable for 80386.
