ES5 note uses some terminology that I don't understand.
"disallow usage"? "issue a warning"? What do those mean? It'd make
sense to say "throw a SyntaxError". What does it mean to issue a
warning? When does it happen? After the misplaced FD early (as early
errors)? Or do warnings cause for abrupt completion?
I'd prefer "An implementation that handles FD as a Statement must
issue a warning" but I think "issue a warning" should be defined.
