I have a .h file with two consts:

	const	a = 10;

	const double	b = 12.5;

The second one gives me a multiply defined symbol from the linker when I
include the .h in two .c's .  The first does not.

It appears that double consts are handled by cfront as initialized variables.
That rules out the usage I have described above.

I tried omitting the ``= 12.5'' but cfront told me that the missing value was
no good.

	How do I get this const declared in a .h for two files when cfront
and the linker seem to insist on working at cross purposes?
