<< The main point is that not syntactically distinguishing between overriding
declarations and new declarations is prone to undetected errors.>>
Yes indeed, the general approach for warnings we were considering is
the following
For a derived type, if you introduce a primitive operation with a name
that is a close misspelling of an inherited primitive operator, and the
inherited primitive operator is nt otherwise overridden, then you give
a warning (and of coruse Initialise with no Initialize would just be a
special case of this check).
