Yes it is:

.h#n52

Sorry for the noise, honestly the idea of a variable with such a
simple/small name being external was so odd to me that I didn't noticed
that on the .c it is not declared as static (and of course I did not
checked the header either).

It is really sad that it does not have any namespacing :-).

Thanks for pointing this out Tim.

Again sorry.
