	I think your VOID definition is broken.  In the file
exec/interrupts.h is the structure:

struct Interrupt {
	struct Node	is_Node;
	APTR		is_Data;
	VOID		(*is_Code)();
};

	Then, later on, when I try and do this:

foo ()
{
	extern long	bar();

	interrupt.is_Code	= (VOID) bar;
}

	...my compiler throws up.  Something about an invalid use of the
'void' declaration.  I have Manx 3.4b.

	I know, it's probably my fault, so I don't cast it and live with the
warning message....
