Re: 7.1 and RPG prototypes

We have the prototypes in a copy member, to use when we need to call the
procedure.  Even if it is not required, we include the copy prototypes
in the procedure, so it will be checked at compile time.

At a first glance it is great that we do not need to prototype local
procedures any longer. But for exported procedures it was better if
the compiler would require a prototype. Otherwise we lose the
benefit of validated procedures interfaces.

In my experience, although prototypes are no longer required for
internal procedures, the compiler still requires a prototype for external
stored procedures or it gives a compile-time error that the procedure is
undefined.
