[omniORB] Omni_mutex and static global object

[renny.koshy at rubixinfotech.com]

I agree... static initializers have haunted projects that I've come into 
or been involved with as far back as I can remember.  I used to just make 
a static pointer & create it in main.... but then I've started using 
singletons with the "instance()", or "GetInstance()" etc...  has worked 
flawlessly for at least 8 years in many projects.... INCLUDING libraries. 
The only drawback is that you have to do the getinstance() inside the 
library itself... which on today's machines isn't all that bad if you 
inline it.
