No it does not as there is only one g_iValue variable. The reasoning behind
using extern int g_iValue; is so it does not get into the global scope.
The reason why the C front-end works is because we have a non TU scope which we
add decls to and then look up global decls that way and get that decl instead
of creating a new one.
