You answered almost at the same time as I sent my previous 
answer, so I hadn't seen your comment, but I tried exactly that! 
Which gives a seg fault.

I also tried just importing this little C file, but then no 
symbols from the h file are found at all. Kind of interesting, as 
if I just write the code using the library in the C file itself, 
that works fine.

Ah, too bad. Anyway, I was just playing around... disappointing 
that it doesn't work but I don't really need this for now.
