signal_test is going to fail on a lot of compilers for quite a while, as is 
function_test. Borland (like so many other compilers...) can't parse function 
types like "int ()" or "float (int x, int y)" (Borland parses the former as 
"int", causing the error you see).

This is one of those cases where XFAIL tests would be nice :)
