			** [[libdank]]'s OpenSSL layer handles this via a <tt>pthread_once_t</tt> which installs a class of thread-specific data. If the thread executing the callback has a NULL value for <tt>pthread_get_specific()</tt>, a <tt>static</tt> key is incremented and copied into the TSD. The increment, and copy of the result, forms a <tt>static</tt> mutex-protected critical section.
