The problem here, as was mentioned by someone else, is the name mangling
that C++ performs.  If you don't wish to have to declare it as a C function,
or even worse, have to painfully trudge through some compiler's rules for
name mangling, then you could do the following:
  Tell the compiler to generate ASM output.  Take a look at it, and see
what name is generated for the function.  Then just use this name in
your asm file.

Incidentally, I tried to reply earlier, but your account bounced.  So I'm
following up, hoping that you will see this.
