VMS Help CC, Messages, PROTOVLA  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

 Message        The extracted header file contains prototypes for
                functions which have formal parameters with variably
                modified type.  All variable length bound specifiers
                have been replaced by a "*" signifying a variable
                length array of unspecified size.

 Description    When extracting function prototype declarations, the
                compiler has encountered a function or functions
                which have a formal parameter with variably modified
                type.  The compiler is unable to recreate the source
                that specified the number of array elements.
                Instead, the output prototype will use the "*" bounds
                specifier.  Note that the output prototype is valid
                for the function.

 User Action    Be aware that the compiler has made this minor change
                to the function declaration.
