Use variable in object library (ar)

I am trying to use a library, lets say libexample.a, and I want to use a variable within the object files that were archived. For example, my new code (which is linked to the library, don't worry about that) wants to access an integer from the original source.

When I use the nm command on libexample.a I see a bunch of stuff, including:
000006ec b var$39.0

I want use that variable. I know its original name and try to call it with my new code but it fails. I have no problem accessing the functions within libexample.a, I just want to use that integer. Or maybe it just isn't possible?

Thanks in advance for any help.

NAME
gnutls_transport_set_errno - API function SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/gnutls.h> void gnutls_transport_set_errno(gnutls_session_t session, int err); ARGUMENTS
gnutls_session_t session is a gnutls_session_t structure. int err error value to store in session-specific errno variable. DESCRIPTION
Store err in the session-specific errno variable. Useful values for err is EAGAIN and EINTR, other values are treated will be treated as real errors in the push/pull function. This function is useful in replacement push/pull functions set by gnutls_transport_set_push_function and gnutls_transport_set_pull- push_function under Windows, where the replacement push/pull may not have access to the same errno variable that is used by GnuTLS (e.g., the application is linked to msvcr71.dll and gnutls is linked to msvcrt.dll). If you don't have the session variable easily accessible from the push/pull function, and don't worry about thread conflicts, you can also use gnutls_transport_set_global_errno(). REPORTING BUGS
