[ Reported to the Debian BTS as report #122103.

Accidentally leaving the close brace off of a block in e.g., a header
file will often result in errors in files that include it, without any
indication of what is wrong. For example, leaving a namespace open will
usually just give a parse error at the end of the including file.
I'd appreciate it if a warning were issued at the end of a file if there
are still any blocks open.
I realize that leaving a block open through a file ending is not a
violation of the ISO standard's letter or spirit; however, I believe it
is usually a mistake, and one that is otherwise hard to track down. A
compiler warning would make tracking it down much easier, and is
unlikely to give any false alarms.
