You'd be surprised just how far OOP in C can go. GTK+ is a good
example of OOP in C. After all, almost all C++ constucts were written
in order to replace or codify as a compiler feature some C equivalent.
Not that I would personally want to write C wrappers for the Octave
headers, just saying that it is theoretically possible while at the
same time retaining most of the flavour of the C++ version.
