Why won't this 1 line pgm pre-compile with Pro-C on NT?

I'm trying to use the Pro-C precompiler for Oracle 8 on NT and it won't pre-compile a simple 1 line pgm with just a connect statement.

It's complaining about an undefined identifier, but it is defined... why won't it see it?

Here's my program:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sqlca.h>

main () {

    char username[10] = "SCOTT";
    char password[10] = "TIGER";

    EXEC SQL CONNECT :username IDENTIFIED BY :password; }

This is what I get from the proc pre-compiler:
