Alternatively, we could reject it when > the referenced function is dependent to keep it working in the cases we know > work correctly and prevent unexpected results in the others. Or we can fix > it and issue a warning suggesting to use a destructor. I'm fine with any of > these solutions and I'm happy to work up a patch (in fact, I already started > working on it hoping for a simple fix). Confirmed, I'd prefer the solution of issuing a warning
