Then you'd probably be better off taking my word for it (or even
trusting your own limited experience where things worked until
you added the switch) and just not using -betterC switch.
It is hopelessly broken, but thankfully, it also brings zero
benefit, so simply not using it is a viable path forward.

Just don't call those functions and they won't hurt you, aside
from adding ~200 KB of size to the dll. On the other hand, the
-betterC switch is hurting you - as evidenced by your own attempt
working until you added it.

It is a very easy solution to your problem. It is up to you if
you want to take it and continue on in productivity or keep
suffering for no benefit (and you'll find more trouble the
further you go using the broken, barely supported switch).
