Hi,
I didn't look at the code yet but maybe it would be another good opportunity
to test one of those code review tools? I don't know who manage this.

About the interest, I've been using a not-as-generic-and-not-thread-safe
solution that looks like your's but was still calling it a Singleton because
of the lack of other word (and it does generate a lot of confusion in
discussions on Singletons). So I'm interested to have this Singularity in
boost.

Doesn't Singularity means a lot more than the current context? I know the
word only from hard science fiction and science related articles; and I'm
not native english so maybe I don't know simpler meaning than in those
contexts.

PS : I just tried to get the source code and it seems my company firewall
forbids the website. Can you expose it in github.com, bitbucket.com or
code.google.com, or at least send it to me by mail, please? I'm sorry for
the trouble, in last resort I'll get it once home this night.
