No, I can't see anything wrong at all. I think maybe we need to see
more of your file to know what's going wrong.

No, it shouldn't.

Below is a complete (but useless!) extension built around your
function. This works for me when I compile with

  mzc --cc test.c
  mzc --ld test.dylib test.o

and then use `load-extension' on "test.dylib".

Does this one work for you? If so, maybe the difference will suggest
something, or maybe the next step is sending a more complete program to
the list. If my version doesn't work for you, then a stack trace is
probably in order to help me figure out what's wrong.
