Description
Fix for 7154248 did not fully resolve regression caused by 7153446.
Somehow we still do not guarantee initialization order.
Comments
EVALUATION It seem that use of function from "other" module does not guaranty static state of that module will be initialized. Solution is to keep static state local to the function. Then it has to be initialized prior to first use.
