The function InterlockedCompareExchange should be _InterlockedCompareExchange #7

In the function Refernce_compare_and_set you call:

InterlockedCompareExchange

however, this funciton is implemented as the compiler intrinsic:

_InterlockedCompareExchange ... see link below

Without this you get the link error:

I am not sure if you need to include Windows.h, but I also added the following code at the top of _reference.c.

  #if defined(_MSC_VER)
  #include <Windows.h>
