OTOH, I just ran into the next C++ roadblock... we have internal headers that use the word "private" as a field, which of course doesn't work with C++... Is it worth fixing up all our internal headers and sources to be C++ compatible? I.e. as a prelude to future C++ stuff? In this case, it's a utility to be installed alongside libc.so, not something inside libc.so itself, but still...
What kind of utility are we talking about? Usually, utilities should not depend on internal headers, they should use the public API (maybe augmented with GLIBC_PRIVATE symbols).
Using some internal headers leads to issues even with C application code. Thanks, Florian
