If I have a class C and a static object
static C obj;
is it legal to use iostream e.g. cout in the constructor for C?
If I do then I am using iostream during static initialisation but, at least
for Gnu libstdc++, iostream depends on locale which depends on static
initialisation of locale ids. So that would seem to me to be a real hazard.
