compiling the example from the doc-comment makes the linker complain about
multiple defined symbols. on windows this does not happen.

the "mixin Reflect;" creates static constructors and saves the TypeInfos for
all functions of the class in a static assoc array. this includes opEqual and
opCmp that both are of type FC6ObjectZi and thus have the same TypeInfo. in
this case the _D20TypeInfo_FC6ObjectZi6__initZ is defined twice (or more
often), which provokes the linker error.
