It sounds as if you're declaring variables in your header file.  You
probably shouldn't do this; the header file usually needs only contain
such information as #defines, prototypes, and structure tag definitions.
Actual variable declarations in a header file would be (I think) unusual,
and this sounds like the problem you're having.  Declare the variables
in main.c and/or foo.c, not in the header file.

Hope this helps,
