Thanks, I'd rather not do that, especially since some recent versions
of GCC are beginning to ignore such "usage", AFAIR.

We could perhaps use some variable attributes, but that'd make the
code less portable to various compilers, and will again require cpp
conditionals, which make the code uglier and harder to read.
