Is it a default initialization value that has no meaning for the program logic? Seems a great approach to this problem! I will carefully read the book "The Practice of Programming" from Brian Kernighan looking for other possible workarounds to this matter. I agree with you, that constant looks great to initialize variables that does not need to be initialized to 0. As Oliver Kiddle said, initializing a variable to a given value can make people to believe that the variable must be assigned that value in the code. Thanks for your feedback on this matter. I will probably use a preprocessor definition like this one in the future.
