Pylint 4.x has refined checking for variable names that behave as

Add a temporary variable with an underscore and assign to the global
constants precisely once to alleviate this new nag message. Add an
ignore for this name for older versions of pylint that developers may
have installed locally.
(In other words: there is no solution that will cater to both pre- and
post- 4.x versions, so we target 4.x here and silence older versions.)
