I wish that when people start FLAMING a product that they show some proof to
what they are saying. I mean if you find something that you think is a bug
then post it and let the net take a look also.

I tried what you said above and the compiler gave me an error every time. I
tried the following:
main()
{
  int i,j;
  i = 10;
  j = 11;

  {
   int k;
   k = 10;
   printf("%d %d %d\n",i,j,k);      <==== i,j are consider global, k local 
  }
  printf ("%d\n",k);                <==== produces error (k not defined)
}

Please post the example that doesn't work.
