Think about it: every time the preprocessor transcludes your header
file into a translation unit, it's going to emit another symbol
declaration.  The linker is going to try to combine all your compiled
object files, each one declaring its own "x".

You might want to review your favorite C documentation.  I always preferred K&R.
