If you are in a world where you are doing separate
compilation, or if those external functions are _really_
external (like, say, bound to web services), detecting this
statically may be difficult, impossible, or just plain wrong
(your network connection goes down half-way through execution).

Implementations that could detect this statically are always 
free to issue the error at that time.
