/* Singleton template class
 *
 * This template class pattern provides a traditional Singleton pattern.
 * Allows you to designate a single-instance global class by inheriting
 * off of the template class.
 *
 * Example:
 *
 *   class Whatever : public Singleton<Whatever> ...
 *
 * The class will need to provide either a public or a protected friend
 * constructor:
 *
 *   friend class Singleton<Whatever>;
 *
 * The class will also need to initialize it's own instance in a single
 * compilation unit (a .cxx file):
 *
 *   // statically initialize the instance to nothing
 *   template <>
 *   Whatever* Singleton<Whatever>::_instance = 0;
 *
 * The class can easily be extended to support different allocation
 * mechanisms or multithreading access.  This implementation, however,
 * only uses new/delete and is not thread safe.
 *
 * The Singleton will automatically get destroyed when the application
 * terminates (via an atexit() hook) unless the inheriting class has an
 * accessible destructor.
