The original version as shown above was fine, but with the ANSIfied
function definition and in the case where internal_function is not empty,
gcc identifies the declaration and definition as different and bails out.
Adding internal_function to the definition doesn't help (it results in
a syntax error); hence, remove it from the subset of declarations that gcc
flags as erroneous.
