You need absatraction for defining global constructor/destructor in
shared library. As Larsl already said, you can use some C++ tricks (like
constructor of global object), for this. In my vision, such thing is
bound to creation of shared library file, this is why I mentioned
libtool. From my (big enough) experience, 'automagic'
initialization of modules
(and non-trivial variables) in addition to being not very
portable
is a REALLY BAD THING.
And I would suggest using explicit calls wherever possible.
