Small addition:

He did not have problems with cdecl, but with the fact that the c library
was not linked. But this was intended: he wrote it explicitly 'as intended'. 
So all is well, except the internal error (AFAIK you cannot pass a record to printf())

Just so you have a correct picture of what is happening.
