It's an issue because the xconfig frontends is qconf, which as the name
implies is using Qt, which *is* C++, and includes list.h.
So, list.h is included by both by C and C++ code.
So yes, list.h can be compiled by a C++ compiler.
Now, granted: list.h should all be enclosed in:
ifdef __cpluplus
extern "C" {
endif
...
ifdef __cpluplus
}
endif
Was that the fix you were suggesting between the lines? ;-)

Yann E. MORIN.
