+// We specifically avoid defining construct() in the header.
+// That way, the call to new is always executed by code inside libastra.
+// This avoids the situation where a singleton gets created by a copy
+// of the constructor linked into an object file outside of libastra, such
+// as a .mex file, which would then also cause the vtable to be outside of
+// libastra. This situation would cause issues when .mex files are unloaded.
