What I did:

/c and /h ending
If you checked the sources out using SVN, then this should have been done
automatically.
- trying to compile with: "gcc pencil_build.c -o penciltest"
This won't work, as you've discovered. You're only building one of the
library source files here. pencil_test.c is the source file for the test
binary.
Something like:
gcc -std=c99 -I<NSLibs$Dir>/include -c pencil_build.c -o pencil_build.o
gcc -std=c99 -I<NSLibs$Dir>/include -c pencil_save.c -o pencil_save.o
ar -cr libpencil.a pencil_build.o pencil_save.o
will give you the library.
And:
gcc -std=c99 -I<NSLibs$Dir>/include -L<NSLibs$Dir>/lib -lOSLib32 -lrufl -o
pencil_test pencil_test.c libpencil.a
will give you the test binary.
Alternatively, there's a pre-built libpencil in NSTools.
