- singleton with registered pointers, so they can be shared between
  loadable modules on Windows, example is the logger singleton currently:
  - exported data segments
    #pragma data_seg("SHARED")
    #pragma data_seg()
    #pragma comment(linker, "/section:SHARED,RWS")

- rewrite logger as proper singleton
- use traits in rewindinputstream, alternative wrappers for char/string
  traits depending on underlying io stream
- spooling in RIS:
  - thread-safe tempnames
  - Windows, respect environment variables like TEMP
- module loader
  - use weak pointers to create objects (pointers which don't transfer
    ownership but act more as a handle). Avoid funny trouble with
    objects originating for modules (especially DLLs on Windows)
