So that it can get rid of requirement of a compiler.
Also define and use more local symbols to ease future changes.

$ sudo ./perf test -v pipe
87: perf pipe recording and injection test :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 748003
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.000 MB - ]
