patch to fix remaining crashes

I'd prefer that the macro names like QNAME_DEFAULT_CONSTRUCTOR and DOM_HTMLNAMES_HIDE_GLOBALS match more closely -- either both should use a prefix or neither.

It seems to me that the !AVOID_STATIC_CONSTRUCTORS case is now a bit broken, so I'm not sure why AVOID_STATIC_CONSTRUCTORS still exists. It seems we now have a new technique for avoiding static constructors that is more portable, so we can do it everywhere.

I'm not happy with all the casts to void*, although I suppose they are necessary.

I don't understand why the changes here for static constructors are not also in JavaScriptCore.

Instead of __VA_ARGS__ the DEFINE_GLOBAL macro could be changed to take a parenthesized list of constructor parameters as a single macro argument, and hence work around a problem you were addressing here.

The patch has tabs in it, in the DocumentImpl.cpp part.

The !AVOID case still generates static constructors, it just does its best to only make ones that won't do anything interesting. I believe it would still result in generating framework init functions.
