The documentation states you can't add ivars to classes that have already been registered. In order for a class to receive +initialize, it logically must already have been registered with the runtime. Therefore, it's quite apparent why class_addIvar() can't be called from +initialize. The fact that you want to add instance variables to a class at all is a terrible code smell. Like Fresh Kills Landfill bad.
