Microsoft C 5.10 produces the following error message:

Sample Code
-----------

    static void _export child( void );

    void main( void )
    {
        child();
    }

    static void _export child( void )
    {
    }

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem with C versions 5.10 and
6.00. We are researching this problem and will post new information
here as it becomes available.
