I don't even know what ctrlbrk() is (presumably something specific to
Borland's compilers?), but I can solve your problem with standard C code:

#include 
#include 

int main(void)
{
    signal(SIGINT, SIG_IGN);  /* initialise the SIGINT signal handler to
                               * ignore the interrupt signal */

    while (1)                 /* infinite loop */
    {
        printf("The universe is neverending.\n");
    }

    return 0;                 /* due to the above infinite loop, this will
                               * never be called, but nevertheless some
                               * brain-dead compilers (eg. Microsoft
                               * QuickC) expect it */
}
