As far as N() is concerned in your program, MyFunction_MyFunction() hasn't
been declared, because N() occurs before it. A proc/func in Euphoria can
only see what is before it in the code.

I suggest you move N() into a second .E library and include it after all
of your function definitions, like so:

-- library.e --------------------------------------

global function One()
    return 1
end function

-- other functions here...
-- N() has been moved to library2.e

-- end of library.e -------------------------------

-- library2.e -------------------------------------

function N()
    -- Rod's code here
end function

-- end if library2.e ------------------------------

-- program.ex -------------------------------------

include library.e -- for One() et al.

-- program.ex's local functions here

include library2.e -- for N()

-- No more proc/func definitions here!

procedure Main()
    -- etc.
end procedure

-- end of program.ex ------------------------------

HTH,
