While converting some local header files to G++ I changed all
	#define x y
to
	const int x = y;
When including the files into a dummy program to test my changes I noticed
that space is reserved for each of the const values.  None of the values are
used or otherwise referenced.  Is this correct?

G++ version is 1.35.0+ compiled for SysV on an i386 using collect.
