If you rename 'class' to 'super_class' and reference it as 'super_class', then this will work in all four of our C flavors, so I'm not sure I understand
your question... Or are you suggesting that we do something like #ifdef __cplusplus Class super_class; #else Class class; #endif? While possible, I'd submit that this approach will be more confusing in the long run.
