Hmm... any reason why?
if instantiated template was not used in any code that makes
into compiled binary, compiler is free to remove it with all
it's ctors. it may do that, or may not, but removal is allowed.
so while that can work now (i didn't checked), it may stop
working in next version (or with another compiler), and that
will not be a bug.
Can you say the same about non templated static constructors?
Like if a type is never used but it has a static constructor, is
the compiler free to remove that as well?
