They don't exist in the library, so you can't access them directly via
ctypes in the same way as variables (i.e.
ctypes.CDLL("libgrass_gis.so").GNAME_MAX won't work). However, ctypesgen
includes preprocessor macros in the generated files, so they are present
in the grass.lib.*.py modules.
Even so, simply importing grass.lib.* will load the corresponding dynamic
library, which may kill the importing process if there are any problems
(e.g. architecture or version mismatches), so I wouldn't recommend it.
