I think you are asking for enabling: -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.

Will take a look.
