David Grier's remarks are good.

Also: You are including idl_export.h, so it would also be wise to use
IDL_INT for the return type of your 'test' procedure in C -- after you
rename the procedure to something less troublesome, like 'braintest'.
Then in the call_external, you will want to set /IVALUE. I think you
might not have seen these errors yet, since IDL did not find the right
shared object and did not find the symbol.

Also, look through the messages in the list, if you haven't already done
so. There have been several about call_external.
