Perhaps Wireshark should surround the body of epan/tfs.h with that....
Well, Wireshark is a C project. It uses C libraries as the GTK library.
Therefore there is no need to add the 'extern "C"' guards to compile
Wireshark.
It would be helpful, if all Wireshark header files add theses guards.
This would improve the compatibility with C++ compilers. But this may be
error prone, since the authors must remember this when creating a new
header file. A missing guard would not be detected as long as a C++ user
will use it. Therefore I prefer to set the guards in the consuming C++
project.
