C++ singleton classe de modèle

Dans un projet récent, j'ai dû créer une classe Singleton et après beaucoup de creuser autour sur Google j'ai trouvé ce modèle de définition de la classe. L'idée est de dériver de cette classe de modèle et de faire de la dérivée de la classe de constructeur protected /private. Il semble bien fonctionner mais je ne l'ai utilisé avec une seule classe dans un projet, j'ai donc été en espérant que certains d'entre vous pourraient rappeler si j'ai fait des erreurs dans la mise en œuvre. Ici, il est:

/**
* @brief 
*    Singleton design pattern implementation using a dynamically allocated singleton instance.
*
* The SingletonDynamic class is intended for use as a base for classes implementing the Singleton
* design pattern and require lazy initialization of the singleton object. The default 
* implementation is not thread-safe, however, the derived classes can make it so by reinitializing
* the function pointers SingletonDynamic<T>::pfnLockMutex, SingletonDynamic<T>::pfnUnlockMutex
* and SingletonDynamic<T>::pfnMemoryBarrier. The member function pointers are initialized by 
* default to point to placeholder functions that do not perform any function. The derived class
* must provide alternate implementations for SingletonDynamic<T>::lock_mutex(),
* SingletonDynamic<T>::unlock_mutex() and SingletonDynamic<T>::memory_barrier() respectively
* and reinitialize the respective function pointer members to these alternate implementations.
*
* @tparam T
*    The type name of the derived (singleton) class
*
* @note The derived class must have a no-throw default constructor and a no-throw destructor.
* @note The derived class must list this class as a friend, since, by necessity, the derived class'
*       constructors must be protected /private.

Je suis particulièrement préoccupé par le membre statique initialisations dans le fichier d'en-tête et si cela va causer de multiples erreurs de définition lorsque le fichier d'en-tête de la classe est dérivée de la SingleDynamic est inclus dans plusieurs fichiers. J'ai déjà essayé ça et ça semble marcher, mais je ne peux pas comprendre pourquoi sa fonctionne :).

Merci d'avance,
Ashish.

EDIT: Modifié la mise en œuvre d'une politique de conception comme le suggère la solution retenue.
