At least 50% of the full implementations of PL/I (there are two, and I
am familiar with the Multics one) generates a warning whenever it
generates a default declaration.  Our Fortran compiler doesn't, though,
probably because it Fortran programs without declarations are so common,
due to the feature of declarations by first letter.
