The only correct and safe way to use error categories is from a shared library. In header only mode, multiple instances may appear and thus no longer be proper singletons. Stuff breaks in this situation, badly.
If this is true, and I hope that it is not, then we better do something about it and soon, because forcing header-only libraries that want to provide their own error categories to put them in a shared library is a non-starter. Thanks
