 Thanks for your review.
 I couldn't see my mistake when I tried to compile it
so I used an old trick, refactor from working code.
I still didn't see my mistake, yet got it to compile.

You're missing the point. This error had been pointed out to you multiple times by multiple posters. Alan even pointed out the *specific* compiler errors which it generated under GCC. Yet you refused to correct it for weeks on end, insisting that everyone else was wrong.
A competent C programmer wouldn't have run into this issue since they would have declared the function as something like:
int H(ptr programDescription, ptr programInput); // no silly x and y
Yet you continue to question everyone else's 'C-credentials' when you are the one making very basic errors. That hardly inspires confidence in anything else you might say about C.
