stdio.h only declares the standard functions. Where does the compiler look for the body of the functions? (I accidentally put this in the Geek's Lounge and don't know how to move it out)

Yeah that wasn't friendly at all, ignore him, it seems a previously banned member has gone around screwing up the forums by posting huge amounts of threads and being rude in answers

If he's banned, how come he's still able to post?

I think he is a user called JoshSCH who is banned, but he has just made a new profile.

The compiler doesn't see their bodies. The functions are already compiled into a library. Lookup detailed descriptions of how compiling and linking works -- this is the sort of thing where half-assed explanations will leave you uncomfortable and unsure.
