What the others said is all true. However, since you have the PR and the
PI in the same program I suspect that someone tried changing from *ENTRY
PLIST to prototypes. And I suspect that they took program XXX210 and
copied it to XXX110 and didn't change the prototype after the copy. While
this may work you may wish to verify what I said and see if you need to
change the prototype. Be a shame if someone decides to use a conditional
include to get the prototype out of this and into other programs they want
to call this program and start calling the wrong program.
