#1443 bug: extern void (* P1032E)(void); ???

[chiu_wenchung]

Test version : sdcc-2.8.0-rc2b-setup.exe

Define inclide xx.h as below (using for yy.c)
extern void (* P1032E)(void);

Define source xx.c as below
include "xx.h"
extern void (* P1032E)(void);

Build cmd: sdcc -mmcs51 --model-large -I"C:\Program Files\SDCC\include\mcs51" -c xx.c

Error message:
xx.C:29: error 91: extern definition for 'P1032E' mismatches with declaration.
xx.H:35: error 177: previously defined here

Try modify:
// extern void (* P1032E)(void); //modify as below
extern (* P1032E)(void); //test is ok !!!

Compatible issue:
I have try the include xx.h "extern void (* P1032E)(void);" code ok for the Borland C, Keil C, ...

It is ok for that Build cmd: sdcc -mmcs51 -I"C:\Program
Files\SDCC\include\mcs51" -c xx.c

So args "--model-large" have bug for the mcs51 mode.

The bug already existed in SDCC 2.7.0 and 2.6.0, so I don't consider it as a SDCC 2.8.0 release show stopper.
