OK, I see now at [1] the following:
" Immutable data doesn't have synchronization problems, so the
compiler doesn't place it in TLS."
I've read that page more than once, but I had forgotten this bit.
Still, I don't see anything there about const. I would not expect
const variables to behave the same way, given the weaker
guarantee about modification. But if they are intended to behave
that way, then, IMO, it should not be possible to reinitialize
them in a static constructor.
