    // Consider the case in which the user adds one LogVolume between
    // the runs. The problem is that the thread-local part (split class)
    // of the G4LogicalVolume object is not initialized for workers
    // because the initialization is done once when the thread starts
    // (see G4MTRunManagerKernel::StartThread Step-2 that calls
    // G4WorkerThread::BuildGeometryAndPhysicsVector in this class).
    // The problem is that pointers of SD and FM for these newly added LV
    // may be invalid pointers (because never initialized, we have seen
    // this behavior in our testing). If now we remember them and re-use
    // them in Step-4 below we set invalid pointers to LV for this thread.
    // Thus we need a way to know if for a given LV we need to remember
    // or not the SD and FM pointers.
    // To solve this problem: We assume that the ConstructSDandField() is
    // called also by Master thread, thus for newly added LV the shadow
    // pointers of SD and Fields are correct.
    // (LIMITATION: this assumption may be too stringent, a user to save
    // memory could instantiate SD only for workers, but we require this
    // not to happen!).
    // Thus if a SD and FieldMgr are needed for this particular LV, and
    // shadow are !=0 it means that user wants an SD and FM to be
    // associated with LV, we get the values and we remember them.
