I've found if I #include ev3dev stuff in separate compilation units then I get errors like this:

This can be worked around by passing --allow-multiple-definition to the linker, but this is a hack. I suspect the real problem lies in some symbols not properly being marked inline (or their definitions being put separately into a .cpp file).
I'm using gcc v11 on Arch Linux.
