I didn't really try using this. When I added it, I thought it might be
useful for modules that live outside the PHP source tree. They could
then define their constants using
#define FOO_ID (GLOBALS_ID_BASE + 3)
rather than hardcoding 33. As you point out, they would still need to
reserve an increment.

I reserved IDs for the subsystems I thought were core. I was sure
there'd be others that I'd missed and so I left space for more.

I'll run some tests and see what impact this has.
