I have an 'awake' function which sets up an instance, like so:

public static instance MySingleton
{
get;
private set;
}

void Awake()
    {
        Instance = this;
    }

This works fine, no problems.

However if I change a script during run time and unity does its recompilation 'Awake' isn't called on 'MySingleton' and another script from its normal update routine attempts to access it causing a null reference exception...

Any idea how I could make sure 'awake' is called straight after a script is recompiled or does Unity not provide a way to handle this?
