I sometimes use that way to init my modules.
 if I want to init the arrays and variables i use (i 
don't always create a class which supply the interface cause the people around 
me use C routines instead of C++ ), what do you think about it.
 
static int 
init_module(void) {     /* code to init the module 
*/     return(0); }
 
static int init_var=init_module();
