The spec only says "implementation-defined" and "not guaranteed" (see
section 3.6.2, point 3 of the ISO C++ spec), so you're on your own, it
seems. :)  See also:

([10.11] What's the "static initialization order fiasco"?)

Of course, in most cases, any static constructors will be called in
the order that you link them in.  But there's no guarantee
whatsoever...
