Made global lazy.

reopened. unfortunately, we cannot build with a lazy global, due to starr crashing in Mixin.scala

Not sure how to fix. val initialize has changed, lazy val will crash the STARR, and I have no idea how to do the pre-super initialization thingy, I tried writing: 
object generator extends {
  val global = ...
} DocGenerator {...}
But the compiler didn't seem to like that.
