Hi Tristan,

in reference to this thread:
https://mail.gna.org/public/ghdl-discuss/2006-01/msg00001.html

Why not turning this error into a simple warning ?

When I reuse code by others not written with GHDL I often have this
error.

I know you want GHDL to follow the Standard but a warning is sufficient
to say that the code is not standard compliant.

One note: the new VHDL 2008 standard has relaxed certain rules like 
these.
But I haven't used it enough to know if it covers this case or not.

I will see what I can do.  I think it would be simpler if this error 
doesn't
occur with --std=93c.

Sure, I understand this point.
