Make sure that what corresponds to your duplicate symbol is not
defined in auxiliary.h. It should only be declared in the file, and
most likely be defined in auxiliary.c.
BTW, include guards (#ifndef...) are useful to avoid many inclusions
of the header for a single compilation unit (a single c file), but
they are not remembered from one compilation unit to another (just
like any other pre-processing directive).
