Yeah, it was the size that was of concern, and it will not get intern'd
across shared libraries - I guess not against static libs (dunno).
David Givens points out that C99 requires only 4K to be inlined, noting
that larger initializers seem to work.
I'll file a bug asknig that extern be used instead of #define.
