RE: [sv-ec] Ballot issue #182, Mantis 2514: Out of block constraints

This is what I've ment.
But imho implicit for should be deprecated or even removed to be consistent
with function declaration. 
If it cannot be removed due to compability issues then maybe tool can print
warning on such code that "extern" need to be added.

constraints

I've uploaded a (very) tentative proposal for Mantis 2514 as threatened,
adding "pure" and "extern" keywords for constraint prototypes.  Please take
a look and let me know whether you think it is too disruptive for this stage
in the process.  I don't want to put any further work into something that
won't find consensus.

The alternative is probably just to normalize the existing de facto tool
behavior, but the desired behavior for constraint prototypes in abstract
classes would still need to be sorted out.

Thanks
