I have not addressed possible issues with "static int index = std::ios::xalloc();" thread safety. gcc at least appears to guard this initialization with a mutex. I'm not sure what the standard guarantees in this regard pre/post C++11. Comments would be appreciated.
C++11 guarantees that function statics are thread safe. C++03 doesn't.
Right. And IIRC, different versions of different compilers implemented that C++11 feature at different times, so it can't really be relied on in portable code. Yet. -- Eric Niebler Boost.org
