I agree with Jonathan, immutables should not be assignable in non-shared ctors.

The runtime works like this:

1. program startup
2. run all shared static ctors
3. run all thread-local static ctors
4. run application
   4a. on thread creation, run all thread-local static ctors
   4b. on thread destruction, run all thread-local static dtors
5. run all thread-local static dtors
6. run all shared static dtors.
7. end program

So everything is unraveled the same way it was, um... raveled :)

I think since immutable means 'store globally', it should be only assignable
from a shared ctor.  Otherwise, you run into issues.
