This
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/288441/variable-declaration-placement-in-c 
suggests "-pedantic" but I recall there being a more specific gcc flag that
just warns or errors on it. It was said in regards to the bug of the XML-LibXML
or XML-LibXSLT CPAN modules, which I maintain and which had a similar problems.
