Comment (by ramey):

 I've taken a cursory look at your patches.

 I've spent quite a bit of time over the years looking at this problem and
 concluded there is no robust, maintainable solution other than to follow
 the advice I gave above. Following the practice outlined above will avoid
 problems with the same code appearing in different modules having the
 possibility of conflicting. It also supports plug-in DLLS in an effective
 way. And it eliminates unnecessary code bloat. Trying to support that
 which is really an application design mistake is a fools errand that never
 ends.

 So I wouldn't expect such a patch to appear in the library.
