The variables are all `constexpr`, which implies `inline`. Since they aren't `constexpr` in C++03 they're also not `inline` there. Because of that we define them out-of-line currently. Instead we can use the C++17 (?) extension of `inline` variables, which results in the same weak definitions of the variables but without having all the boilerplate.
