Eric Snow added the comment:

That's an interesting thought.  My intuition is that it wouldn't be worth doing.

It would certainly trade one development overhead for another, so it's a bit of 
a wash there, I think.  Are there other spots in the stdlib that rely on the 
magic number?  Is it used much outside the stdlib?
