That seems OK, though I would prefer that the test not explicitly declare
and then use a standard function. I'm not really sure why that test needs
to have a function call after the declaration at all. But if it does, then
using a call to a locally-defined function or an external, undefined
function with a nonstandard name seems better.
Thanks,
Roland
