Can you provide a complete example?
As you described it, the constructor should be called. But you haven't
given enough information for anyone to duplicate the situation in which
the constructor isn't called.
Was the definition of the constructor provided in the same compilation
or was it external? If provided, how do you know it wasn't called
(possibly inlined and optimized to the point that you wouldn't know)?

At issue is that Tube<T>'s constructor isn't getting called when Clock

I thought all classes had their constructors called when instantiated
as an object even as members of structs. Any ideas?
