Aah, I see what's going on. See, I was using this in the context of wrapping existing C++ libs. Since I was writing a small test-case for wrapping a static field I made a header file with a static field declaration but no .cpp implementation files (except the wrapper). I didn't know I had to either have an initializer in the header or have a .cpp file with the definition. For actual C++ libs the definition of a static field is somewhere in an existing cpp file, so I don't have to re-define the static field when wrapping (otherwise I'd probably get collisions or multiple independent variables).
