They are the same and you can actually see me plugging into the C++ code here:

https://github.com/sgonyea/pabst/tree/master/ext

But as part of an Objective-C library (called ObjFW).  So, the code is actually 
an Objective-C++ wrapper around the C++ PB code, that exchanges messages with 
Objective-C code (that hooks into Ruby).

I believe Sean Cribbs has some initial C++-wrapper code in his Ripple repo...  
Though he eventually abandoned it after C++ left him permanently cross-eyed (I 
think that's why).
