Spoiler attack: i consider this a feature. I never used static constructors in C++, and i hated Stroustrup's "injection" idea. (There was a short time when i used it, but it is sick.) Anyhow on first-time-init-switches ... when i create a framework that uses dynamic modules, why can't i define a special symbol that is called when it is defined upon load? Like __nodejs_init() or something? We surely do not want to create too many specifics, it is just a loose thing, maybe.
