Quirks in Borland C++ (using normal C)

Has anyone else noticed quirks in the Borland C++ IDE project management
where a submodule will be compiled to obj w/out externs?

I wrote a simple subroutine, built a test main() in another file,
and built the project.  The subroutine compiled to obj just fine
but I kept getting label resolve probelms at link time.

I left the IDE and used TDUMP to look into the obj and wa'laa no 
public labels.  I re-compiled the subroutine at the command
line and looked at the obj again and this time the public labels
were there.

This was a simple C routine (I dont know C++ yet) so I can't 
figure why the IDE was having a problem.  Needless to say, it almost
drove me crazy thinking it was my code.

Anyone else have this problem?
