On the advice of Walter and Andrei, I've written a blog article
about the low-lock Singleton pattern in D. This is a
previously obscure pattern that uses thread-local storage to
make Singletons both thread-safe and efficient and was
independently invented by at least me and Alexander Terekhov,
an IBM researcher. However, D's first-class treatment of
thread-local storage means the time has come to move it out of
obscurity and possibly make it the standard way to do
Singletons.

Thanks!
I want to make a module with template mixins that implement some
common idioms - singleton being one of
them(http://forum.dlang.org/thread/[email protected]).
I'm going to use your version for implementing the singleton
idiom.
