This is less safe than you might like. On iOS and 64-bit Mac, you may end up 
with both copies of the class in use simultaneously. That means two separate 
invocations of +initialize, two separate locks for @synchronized([MyClass 
class]), etc.

The simplest solution is to keep your utility classes in a static archive on 
iOS, but build it as a dylib for Mac OS.
