Running into BAD_DECL with unknown file name

Posts: 1,669 ✭✭
Dear Insure++ Experts,
I am running into a BAD_DECL group of messages I can't interpret correctly
They look like:
[VNS.c:65] (Thread 0) **BAD_DECL**
>> static IF_ERROR_MAP ErrorMap[MAX_RC] =
Incompatible global declarations: ErrorMap
Arrays have different type and dimension.
Actual declaration : array of 3 elements, declared in unknown
Conflicting declaration: array of 5 elements, declared at VNS.c, 65
File snippet:
65: static IF_ERROR_MAP ErrorMap[MAX_RC] =
66: {
67: {GOK, IF_DATETIME},
68: {GOK, IF_UPDATE_START},
69: {GOK, IF_COMMIT_START},
70: {GOK, IF_READ_START},
71: {GOK, IF_JCS}
72: };
[cache_load.c:53] (Thread 0) **BAD_DECL**
>> static CACHE_MAP fieldRecordMap[] = {
Incompatible global declarations: fieldRecordMap
Arrays have different type and dimension.
Actual declaration : array of 11 elements, declared in unknown
Conflicting declaration: array of 2 elements, declared at cache_load.c, 53
File snippet:
53: static CACHE_MAP fieldRecordMap[] = {
54:
55: {"CODE", 0},
56: {"KEY_ID", 0}
57: };
The User Guide is quite clear and straightforward about this error:
"Global Declarations Are Inconsistent
This error is generated whenever Insure++ detects that a variable has been declared as two different types in distinct source files."
My first trouble is there is no second distinct file only unknown
It looks like Insure++ somehow deduces actual number of elements in an array on run-time and it doesn't compare nicely with a declared one...
Any hints on how to deal with this sort of situations?
Windows XP SP2 x86
VS2005 Pro C++
Insure v7.1.6

The declaration from the unknown "source" file is either:
1/ An object file which has no debugging information
2/ An object file produced from non-C/C++, (ie: FORTRAN, COBOL or some other language)
3/ This is Windows, which doesn't give us file names in debugging information, so we only have the point of definition
