Actually, given that we disallow statement expressions in prototypes 
outside a function (even where they only mean [*] and have no further 
significance) perhaps it does make sense to be stricter about saying that 
old-style parameter declarations don't count as inside a function for this 
purpose, and disallowing statement expressions there in general.  But if 
we do that then we should consider if declarations of parameters to nested 
functions likewise are restricted and can't include statement expressions.
