I still haven't had any luck figuring out what was causing my problem.

I have uploaded my code (an older version that had this problem) to
http://www.jasonhsu.com/swrwatt_2010_0224_2131.c .  The code as is
will compile.  Uncommenting the delay_1_msec declaration will cause
the error to show up.

I agree that I need to figure out why I was getting these cryptic
function declaration errors even though the same offending lines
(verbatim) had no such effect in another program.  As a student and as
an engineer, I have found all too often that political pressure has
encouraged me to just get the job done rather than take the time to
understand just what I'm doing.  Since I don't have a professor or
boss breathing down my neck over this matter, I cannot use this as an
excuse to pass up this learning opportunity.
