If want to make the function {static} with g++ 3.3, I need to put {braces}
around it:

extern "C"
{
    static void ... {}
}

THIS works.

It also works if I drop the {static} qualifier and otherwise have as quoted
in the previous message.


But what is in the previous message does NOT work, if done exactly as shown.
g++ complains about multiple storage class qualifiers for the function.


At least I have killed off the name-space pollution.  Now the only drawback
is that the code is ugly.  (^&


Thanks a lot for the pointer (no pun intended, but there it is).
