Hmm, now I'm getting the warning message too.  Very weird, and I don't have the 
test case any more.  Sigh; I can only suspect that I had a typo in my test 
case, my apologies.

But that's an even better argument for the simple "warn always", which is what 
the patch does.
It also accepts code that's hideous (and probably shouldn't accept), but I 
think it's better to accept-with-warning than fail to accept existing programs.
