The standard generally uses the term "invalid" rather than "illegal" :)
Recent versions of gcc have -Wdeclaration-after-statement and will
detect such constructs:
../svn/subversion/svnserve/serve.c: In function 'lock_many':
../svn/subversion/svnserve/serve.c:1436: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code
../svn/subversion/svnserve/serve.c:1474: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code
../svn/subversion/svnserve/serve.c: In function 'unlock_many':
