Sorry for the late reply. Yeah, sorry I missed that. 

That said I still don't understand why initialization just can't be
thread-safe. Using SubstitueLoggers and what not just hides the issue. The
bottom line is initialization of a binder is not thread-safe and I see no
reason why it shouldn't be. If it's just made thread-safe there is no need for
all this substitute logger code.
