     Compiler error C2587
 
     'identifier' : illegal use of local variable as default parameter
 
     A local variable was illegally used as a default parameter.
 
     The following is an example of this error:
 
          int i;
          void func();
          {
             int j;
             extern void func2( int k = j );  // error, local variable
             extern void func2( int k = i );  // OK
          }
