Comment (by jwakely):

 Why couldn't you just continue to document that C++ is not officially
 supported, but still accept a patch so that it mostly Just Works, even
 though not supported?

 The reality is that people are already using your headers in C++ code, but
 they're forced to do so badly and in violation of the standard.
