for the choice of file extension, this is really a tiny thing, but I do
have
a reason for .cpp

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1545080/correct-c-code-file-extension-cc-vs-cpp
So I have done some research :P
Your reason is a question closed as unconstructive, where the top
answers say it doesn't matter? Why does that support .cpp?

How about using .cc because the existing C++ code in GCC already uses .cc

How about scrolling down? It is such a small issue there is no definitive
answer, the compiler doesn't care, but there is some debate on that page.
I read it.  That's not debate, just ill-informed speculation ("cpp is
the recommended extension for C++ as far as I know").  We already have
C++ code in GCC, the runtime library uses .cc and the G++ testsuite
uses .C, adding .cpp as a third choice based on the opinions in that
page or your feeling of unease doesn't seem like a good idea to me.

Why not rename them to?
