Yet, the patch was so simple.  There could be other reasons for a C++ switch,
but you just took an easy opportunity to jump on me.  As I'm sure I've said before
more than once, I prefer C++ over C, but I don't think C++ is currently a good idea
for GDB.  Let's not turn every suggestion to improve the sources into a C->C++
discussion, please?
