You don't say what you did with the test.c program.
I think that on linux cc is the same as gcc
I looked to see what David Young had done to compile his C code for the
popvision library using gcc so that it could be linked into pop11

It seems that you have to use -shared.
So I tried
gcc -o test.so -shared test.c
this produced a file test.so, which was requested in your mishap
message.
Then your example worked:
external declare testprog in c;
int multiply(x, y)
int x, y;
{}
endexternal;
external load testprog;
test
endexternal;
multiply(999, 9) =>
** 8991
