		2.)Sequent386 (UNIX System V Release 3.2.0 i386 - DYNIX/ptx V1.3.1)
Config:  	1.)hp720-hpux --gas (with some patches)
		2.)???? (80386, BSD syntax)
compiler input:
test.cc:
----------------------- cut here --------------------------
extern double pow(double,int*);

extern "C" {
  extern int    printf(char*,...);
  extern double pow(double, double);
}

int main()
{
        printf("pow:%g\n",pow(2.0,3.0));
        return 0;
}

It seems that the compiler wants to call pow(double,int*) instead of pow(double,double).

The bug disappears, if you move the "extern "C"{...}" block in front of the other prototype.

If somebody knows a patch for this problem please send it to me (via email!)
