You're not stumped, that was exactly the problem. The linker decided to

naming routines like that, didn't see the problem.
It did always annoy me, that such generic words as "open", "close",
"read", "write" were sucked up by the Unix OS, the OS writers having
had first pickings from the global symbol name space.
main()
{
Read();
}
Read()
{
blah;
blah;
}
Well I am stumped, other case sensitvity for Read
and the OS read routine, when linked.
