Linking XLib into Modula-2 programs

I am having difficulties with the XLib Mode X graphics Library. More 
specifically, I am trying to link the XLib object files into a Modula-2 
program, using the Jensen and Partners International TopSpeed 
Implementation of Modula-2 Version 1.17.

I have created a definition file for the object modules, and set the 
compiler up to use the C procedure calling convention, but when I try 
to link the program, the linker gives me several error messages of the 
form: 

"XMAIN$<variable name> was unresolved in Module <program name>"


Obviously this indicates that the variable names as declared in the 
definition module, and the  actual variable names in the object file do 
not mach up, but I have checked these both with the Xlib documentation, 
and also the source code. Does anyone have any ideas?

Martin Harvey.
