Ah, now it gets interesting. So, I first made it static const (or
const static), but since it's const, I figured it didn't make a
difference except for keeping it alive between multiple function-calls
which doesn't seem all that useful, so I removed it. Apparently I'm
not quite getting it, so: what's the difference between const static
and "just" const? Is one more efficient in memory-usage than the
other?

Thanks,
Ronald
