 We need an API for dispatch_once:

 
http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man3/dispatch_once.3.html

 
http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Performance/Reference/GCD_libdispatch_Ref/Reference/reference.html#//apple_ref/c/func/dispatch_once

 
http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/libdispatch/libdispatch-84.5.1/src/once.h
 
http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/libdispatch/libdispatch-84.5.1/src/once.c

 Ideally something as simple as:

 Dispatch::Once.new  { run_this_once }

 The tricky part is that the "Once" would have to allocate (the equivalent
 of) a global or static dispatch_once_t (i.e., a long). Could that be done
 with class variables?
