I'm working on a legacy test platform with a compiler that expects K&R

for my code? Would it affect syntax for function prototypes?
Very much so, since K&R C doesn't allow prototypes AFAIR. You can have
declarations tho.
When I attempt to make or compile my C code, the compiler complains
about the syntax of the function prototypes, even though the syntax is
correct.
Example syntax:
void function_name(void);
This isn't valid pre-ANSI C. You need to remove the void, and any
other parameters, from the prototype to turn it into a plain old
declaration.
