The order of initialization of non-local objects in different compilation units
is not specified in C++. Hence special care should be taken to avoid static
initialization order fiasco. CLN solved the problem with some evil (GCC
specific, and even GCC-version-specific) hack. Replace it with a technique
similar to one used in STL to initialize std::cout and friends.
I am too lazy for a detailed discussion of all the changes.
Many identifiers got their `cl_' stripped off. Ok, this is a
clumpsy CVS log-entry. Promise: more will soon go into the
file ChangeLog. I apologize for the inconvenience. :-(
