It doesn't *always* work.  For example, I think CONST_STRING() doesn't work in 
PCCMETHODs in PMCs for some reason I can't explain, and it doesn't work in 
other source files.

Fixing that would be nifty.  (Who's reading this besides Patrick?  Want to 
make karma fast?  Figure out why, and either tell me so that I can fix it or 
figure out the right fix and send a patch.)
