Many, many years ago, the gcc developers realised that it can be a problem for some people - and they helpfully added warnings "-Wmissing-prototypes" and "-Wmissing-declarations" to spot this situation. The warnings are optional, because some people don't like to have to declare their (non-static) functions before defining them, but for many people the warnings are a simple check for such typos. Many other compilers no doubt have similar warnings. So while I think it would be nice if the language made this sort of thing an error in some way, I find it is no problem in practice when you use tools designed to help spot errors.
