It can only change during argument parsing.

gcc is being a bit dumb here since default_output_format is a statically
initialised enum whose only values are OUTPUT_FORMAT_JSON and
OUTPUT_FORMAT_SXP.

I suspect that now you have re-written it so that hand is only touched
iff format == JSON and format is const that initialisation of hand is no
longer necessary. But nonetheless:
