But, I would tend to accept patches from Gaby to fix such | problems. I guess we had a preliminary discussion about this a while ago. I volunteered to maintain this compatibility issue. At a first stage, once the patches are in, I would like to adapt Geoff's regression scirpt to run the build with a C++ compiler. Next, I'm willing to follow-up with patches that implement warnings about C/C++ compatibility but that would be a much more extensive project, so I don't think it would be fair to require it for 4.1 or hold patches on that. They are improvements we can get by increments. -- Gaby
