Sidestep link error from rustfix'ed code by using a *defined* static.

As a drive-by, added `-g` to the compile-flags so that the test more
reliably fails to compile when the extern static in question is *not*
provided. (I.e. this is making the test more robust in the face of
potential future revisions.)

Fix #54388.
