+// Define the type id and initialize with a non-zero value.

+// when some object files are compiled with a compiler that puts the variable
+// into .data but they are linked to object files from a different compiler that
+// put the variable into .bss. To prevent this issue from happening, initialize
+// the variable with a non-zero value, which forces it to land in .data (because
