If the original source compiled fine for you (no multiple definition
error), that is logical since you then removed the only definition of
fatal_exit.  This also means that the version from mt.c is also the one
that ends up in the mt binary.

Maybe I have some stray header file in the standard include directories
which triggers this.  I will look at it when I find time, but I'm not
too optimistic that I find the reason.  Feel free to downgrade the
severity in the meantime.

BTW, this ChangeLog entry

suggests that the fatal_exit function from mt.c is the intended one, but
naming it like a function with different semantics in fatal.c is highly
confusing, to say the least.
