logging issue on Debian:
MessageIntitializer::loadDictionary() cores when called explicitly from
function insides shared library which defines its own log messages.
The dhcp server opens each hook library once during configuration parsing.
This is done to "validate" the library. It is closed immediately without
invoking its load function.
This causes the MessageIntializer declared in the generated messages .cc
file to be instantiated. This in turn adds an entry to
MessageInitializer::logger_values. This entry is never "consumed" as
MessageInitializer::loadDictionary is not invoked prior to closing the
library.
The dhcp server then opens each configured hooks library again, this time
invoking their load functions. When the explicit call to
MessageInitializer::loadDictionary() is maed within the library's load
function, it contains a 'stale' entry from the initial library open.
Under some OS's accessing this entry is a seg fault.
