Description

The following are missing, and result in linker warnings:

StaticMDCBinder.getSingleton(): StaticMDCBinder
StaticMarkerBinder.getSingleton(): StaticMarkerBinder

This isn't a problem unless you're linting for linkage issues, at runtime the error is caught and the singleton field is used directly. We might as well avoid exceptions on initialization and support the preferred mechanisms.
