 Re: Declaration after use is an abomination, and should not bear
     consideration.

I can't accept this.  After many attempts to settle upon a good rule for
arranging (procedure) declarations in a logical and natural order, I've
concluded that there is no single best arrangement.  One that often works
well for me is simple alphabetical order, sometimes with the public entry
points sorted into a separate series at the beginning.  In other
situations, a top-down arrangement of procedures seems best.  In either of
these arrangements, a lot of declarations occur
