I guess we might as well, expect perhaps if -fno-assume-compiled.
As a general goal, I think we should try to resolve as much
at compile- or link-time. I'd like it so we only need to initilize
classes that have non-trivial class initializers - and some of those
can also be avoided by static object allocation.
