Cdecl is probably a modifier for functions that says that the
function uses the C calling sequence. You might find that the
identifiers "pascal" or "fortran" are also used this way.

Microsoft's C compilers for the IBM-PC (which I'm told are the same
as used in Xenix) do something like this. There is, for the Microsoft
compilers, a compiler option to disable this. Who knows, maybe there
is one for yours?
