/** Once implements the "once" concept as introduced by POSIX threads.
    That is, it arranges for a function to be called just once in a thread
    safe manner. The following example shows how to constuct an object of
    type X the first time any thread reaches the line that calls once().

        static Once _once = PEGASUS_ONCE_INITIALIZER;
        static static X* _ptr;

        static void _create_X()
        {
            ptr = new X;
        }

        ...

        once(&_once, _create_X());

    The _create_X() function is called exactly once no matter how many times
    once() is called on it. Also, once() may be called safely from multiple
    threads.

    CAUTION: Once instances must always be defined statically.
