Do you mean: the object might be already zero initialized before the ctor runs? If yes: this is very dangerous to rely on!
No. This is required. The memory for an object with static-storage-duration MUST be zero initialized prior to the constructor running.
It dont even matter, it *must* not have a constructor. Or else there'll be a race condition on the compiler's flag and multiple constructor calls.
