The above isn't a singleton function, as you are clearing initialized,
therefore it doesn't have the properties the thread_local var get_address
wrapper has. The singleton function really is
void singleton (void)
{
static __thread bool initialized;
if (!initialized) {
initialized = true;
call_some_function_that_may_modify_memory ();
}
}
and has side effects just first time in a thread.
