I have found that the functions have to be global (someone correct me on this if
I'm wrong).  Everytime I have attempted to set up the timer handler to call a
member function in a class, like

install_int(&SomeClass::SomeFunction(), 1000);

results in the error

"error converting from 'void (SomeClass::*)()' to 'void (*)()' "
