This looks like you're missing the prototypes for the SD-function
calls, and I would think those would be in an include file, not a
library.  Does g++ get prototypes from compiled libraries?

Maybe you removed an include for mdhdf.h which in turn included a
header file for the SD functions, so you now need to include that
header file explicitly?  Sorry, but questions in any more depth about
how HDF4 structures their header files would be best answered by the
HDF helpdesk, at address@hidden.  I'm CC:ing them on this
message, in case they know the answer (please CC: me in the reply).
