Description Ilja Preuss CLA 2003-03-13 05:39:17 EST 
"unused private fields" should already get a warning/error, if the field isn't 
*read* once, similar to unused local variables.

Currently, if a field is only "used" to initialize it in the constructor, for 
example, you don't get notified.

Fixed, also changed the error message to read "The private X is never read 
locally".
