Tell us what you see when you use the C-preprocessor only on that file:

gcc -E rain.c |less

and then search in the output for setbuf:


float cols, lines;

    setbuf(__stdoutp,malloc(1024));
    if (!(term=getenv("TERM"))) {


..like this.

This is FreeBSD here and you can see that setbuf handles a pointer..
