It is actually, quite simple to fix. When SAS/C first sees the call to the function before it is declared, it creates a dummy prototype for the function. When it encounters the function, the attributes don't match. To get around this, just declare a prototype for the function at the start of the file. My recommendation for getting a better message for this is to always use the -cf (check for Function prototypes) option. It will complain where you first called the function.
