Yeah.  Some MS/DOS C compilers think "cdecl" is a C keyword,
meaning "use C linkage for this function even though a global
compile switch says to use Pascal linkage".  It's a crock.

If you're lucky, you can do what on UNIX would be expressed as
"cc -Dcdecl=Xcdecl" to work around the problem without having
to do a lot of editing.
