Are you sure you didn't do what it says? For example:

DATAFILE *d = load_datafile("forgot_the_quotes.dat);

// no closing quotes, string spills into the entire C code, causing a serious
problem

I remember I used to do this a lot. This is most likely your problem. If this
were to be compiled, the next line and the one after it would be still part of
the string, until you say printf("Text here"); in which Text Here becomes the C
code and the rest is a new string. The compiler aborts before any unbelivably
long errors show up due to this.
