This comment is relevant regarding the C++ ABI closure on which this idea has
been derived:

That thing must be reopened and fixed asap.

Also, please read the thread carefully.

Locking arbitrarily any section of code, for any reason, outside the control of
the user is just wrong, because:
1) it prevents the code to use more efficient schemes if needed.
2) it prevents the code to forfait any locking if not needed.
3) it may even force different approaches and encapsulations into the final
code, which is not what C++ is meant.

This holds even if the code is inside a static initializer. 

Bests,
Giancarlo Niccolai.
