This is because these variables are only used to take the size of their
fields using the sizeof() operator, which does not support type names
directly.
So create a helper macro SIZE_OF_T () that provides the functionality we
need, and drop the unused variables.

This is because these variables are only used to take the size of their fields using the sizeof() operator.
So declare them as 'extern' instead, as no definition is actually needed for this use case.
