[ROOT] C++ Header File/CINT failure to communicate

Here is a header file foo.h to a function foo.c. The claim is that I can
just say

#include "foo.h"

in my own code that calls foo. Here is foo.h:

				***

extern int foo(float *in, float *out, int init);

static struct {
  int NoOfInput;    /* Number of Input Units  */
  int NoOfOutput;   /* Number of Output Units */
  int(* propFunc)(float *, float*, int);
} fooREC = {3,1,foo};

				***

When I ' #include "foo.h" ' and run it, Root CINT objects:

	Error: unrecognized language construct foo.h LINE:6
	*** Interpreter error recovered ***

In other words, CINT seems to object to this line:

	  int(* propFunc)(float *, float*, int);

Any suggestions on how to sort this out so CINT won't get it's knickers in
a twist? It would be nice to make as few changes as possible.

	Thanks -- Sean
