how to access to a compiled function in a C interface

Hello,

I would like to access to a compiled function from a C interface.
Here is the intersting part of the optim documentation:

C=['#include <math.h>'
    'double sq(double x)'
    '{ return x*x;}'
    'void rosenc(int *ind, int *n, double *x, double *f, double *g, '
    '                                int *ti, float *tr, double *td)'
    '{'
    '  double p;'
    '  int i;'
    '  p=td[0];'
    '  if (*ind==2||*ind==4) {'
    '    *f=1.0;'
    '    for (i=1;i<*n;i++)'
    '      *f+=p*sq(x[i]-sq(x[i-1]))+sq(1.0-x[i]);'
    '  }'
    '  if (*ind==3||*ind==4) {'
    '    g[0]=-4.0*p*(x[1]-sq(x[0]))*x[0];'
    '    for (i=1;i<*n-1;i++)'
    '      
g[i]=2.0*p*(x[i]-sq(x[i-1]))-4.0*p*(x[i+1]-sq(x[i]))*x[i]-2.0*(1.0-x[i]);'
    '    g[*n-1]=2.0*p*(x[*n-1]-sq(x[*n-2]))-2.0*(1.0-x[*n-1]);'
    '  }'
    '}'];
    mputl(C,TMPDIR+'/rosenc.c')
    // compile the C code
    l=ilib_for_link('rosenc','rosenc.o',[],'c',TMPDIR+'/Makefile');
    // incremental linking
    link(l,'rosenc','c');

Once this function is compiled and linked, the 'rosenc' doesn't appears 
as a variable. I am only able to use this function via a call to fort.
Where is this function in scilab ?
How to I get a pointer to this function in a C interface ?
