Comment(by cnewbold):

 ''And finally...''

 Quite right. I now agree your suggested fix is completely sound.



 And, in fact, making your suggested fix re-orders the construction of the
 pool and allocator objects as expected. I tried the experiment with GCC
 4.1.2.



 The next step is for me to audit the remainder of the pool library and see
 if there are other clients of singleton_pool which are subject to the same
 potential failure mode.
