Compilers don’t need to uniquely name things with internal linkage, like static variables and functions. You can’t access static objects outside the translation unit, so the linker doesn’t need to get a name for them.
Global variables with external linkage don’t usually have much mangling or decoration applied to their names, and it’s often exactly the same that is applied to functions. A single leading underscore is not terribly uncommon.
