I think Euphoria used to catch that, but over the years
people complained about spurious warnings, e.g. they
might have:

   ignore = graphics_mode(18) -- if it fails, so what? 

or 

   ignore = getc(0)  -- wait for key press

to discard the result returned by a function, but then they'd
be warned about "ignore" not being used. 
Perhaps we can re-instate this warning in some cases.
