Details

a) static initializers have been verboten in the past on some environments
b) the approach the AOT code takes works everywhere except windows
c) the static tables are bigger than they need to be
d) its silly that this actually results in code that has to run at load time

One possible solution is to not use a union but have an array of members and an array of functions

true, but AFAIK only Symbian has ever had this issue, and it's not a top priority at the moment. (ie, not worth changing solely for that.)
