So you are saying that static members are destructed at file scope and it is
totally irrelevant who thier friends are and the scope of the construction?
Consider the following quite similar code:

class singelton
{
 private:
   singelton() { };
   ~singelton() { };

 friend class wrapper;
};

class wrapper
{
 public:
   singelton nonstatic;
   static singelton isstatic;
};

singelton wrapper::isstatic;

The wrapper is allowed to have non-static singeltons, but not static
singeltons.  This implies that public/private and friends mean something
different for static or non-static members which (i think) is very strange.

Thanks,
