Not at all.  I added the following lines to your program:

    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>

And after your while loop, I added
    
    return EXIT_SUCCESS;

Just to be pedantic.  Anyway, here's the output:

    chewie@chef:~/src [509]$ a.out
    blah
    You typed: b
    You typed: l
    You typed: a
    You typed: h
    You typed:

    blee
    You typed: b
    You typed: l
    You typed: e
    You typed: e
    You typed:

I compiled this on both potato and woody w/gcc versions 2.95.2 and 2.95.4.  Did
you forget the include headers?
