       -Wdeclaration-after-statement (C and Objective-C only)
           Warn when a declaration is found after a statement in a block.
           This construct, known from C++, was introduced with ISO C99 and
           is by default allowed in GCC.  It is not supported by ISO C90 and
           was not supported by GCC versions before GCC 3.0.

We used to support GCC < 3.0. I don't think we still have a FATE instance for
it. But it still generates a warning, so we can somehow consider modern
compilers don't "like it" either. If "choke" was not appropriate, sorry
about that.
