Fixed, indeed.  Thanks.

Very nice that it compiles under gcc and g++ with no warning,
except for the two you mentioned before (-pedantic only):

There should be some way to avoid this I'm sure.  What are you
doing in other modules, they don't have this problem?

I can think of hacks by doing fake prototypes/declarations, but
that totally breaks all error cheking the compiler is doing for
us.
