I often have a manfiest constant WHO_CARES, #define WHO_CARES (void*)012345
#define WHO_CARES 0xdeadbeef int foo = WHO_CARES; Has the advantage that if you *do* make it through the code without actually setting a known good value, you'll probably get a SIGSEGV or other blatantly obvious indication that things have gone very very awry. '12345' doesn't always do that for you....
