Okay, so let's take this one small step at a time. (And I think I'll
open a separate RFC for adding a class with the time constants as class
constants so we don't have them in the global constants).

I've attached a patch that adds only the character constants. Once this
has been +1ed and checked in, I'll provide a second patch for actually
using these constants in the core.
