Try using nm on the object that you create.  I think the difference
between global and local is this.
Global Variable    -> _SomeInt
Local Variable     -> _SomeInt.n , where n is the local instance
                                   being referred to.

Basically, GCC must create unique variables for every function,
because your code is always global, the compiler just doesn't
allow you to refer to it as such.

The only way to get the exact instance, is trial and error with nm,
to get the one version of the variable you need.
