As Nelson Beebe has explained to me some time ago, there are a bunch
of platforms which use a C++ compiler even for compiling plain C code.
For this reason, I test whether my source files compile fine with g++.
BTW, here is what gcc-4.6.info says:
`g++' is a program that calls GCC and treats `.c', `.h' and `.i'
files as C++ source files instead of C source files unless `-x' is
used, and automatically specifies linking against the C++ library.
So g++ indeed handles my C files as C++ since I don't use option `-x'.
