From what the error message complains about, it sounds like you should rather try to fix the source code. The compiler complains about difference in declaration, similar to for instance
void foo(int i);
...
void foo(double d) {
...
}
and this is not valid C code, hence the compiler complains.
Maybe your problem is that there is no prototype available when the function is used the first time and the compiler implicitly creates one that will not be static. If so the solution is to add a prototype somewhere before it is first used.
