           Summary: importC: Error: variable 'fun' cannot be declared to
                    be a function

Declaring functions has two equivalent syntaxes.
---
int fun();
---
typedef int (tfunc)();
tfunc fun;
---

The latter is however rejected by the compiler.

Related code results in "Error: function 'fun' conflicts with variable 'fun'"
---
typedef int (myfunc)();
static myfunc fun;

int main()
{
    return fun();
}

int fun() // inherits "static" from declaration.
{
    return 0;
}
