Thanks to those who responded.  I now know that the correct
declaration is
		int (*getroutine(name,table))()
and not the
		int (*getroutine))((name,table)
that I had been trying to use.  The astonishing thing is that the
pdp11 compilers I have used (2.8bsd, V7, and sysIII based) accept
either declaration and generate identical (working) code.
