Hm. I must be missing something.
BOOSTLITE_NOINLINE inline const std::error_category &_generic_category()
{
const std::error_category &c = stl11::generic_category();
return c;
}
This doesn't cache anything. It just calls stl11::generic_category() and
returns the result.

Would be nice if we could see that demonstrated on godbolt.org.
