Ivan, the fix is trivial. In c-decl.c (undeclared_variable), replace the call
to "error" with a call to "inform". However, it may require updating testcases
and the maintainers may prefer to remove the message altogether. Since this is
a minor issue, it is not strange that people prefer to do something else. 

If you are interested in seeing this fixed, this is a good opportunity to learn
how to contribute to GCC, since the patch is trivial, the only difficulty is
the whole process, that may seem complex at the beginning. You can find more
information in http://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html and ask any question about
