Manifest constants are invariant, so in practice it will be
invariant(int), even if not explicitly declared as such.

For this reason, I would hope that the compiler should be able to realise that

    const int x = 1;

creates an x which could be stored in ROM, and automagically types x
as invariant(int). Because of implicit casting, this cannot possibly
break anything.
