FWIW not necessarily. Look at innodb_io_capacity, innodb_purge_batch_size, innodb_rollback_segments, innodb_purge_threads just name the first few where a srv_* variable is specified in MYSQL_SYSVAR_* directly. Note that the srv_* = innobase_* assignments have typecasts on them, so I haven't checked, but it might be that using the srv_ in a MYSQL_SYSVAR_ directly would have resulted in compilation warnings otherwise.
