User defined types are fine.
It's user defined non-POD types that are not.

The problem is that the variable arg mechanism was never updated
to deal with C++.   It's restricted to behavior from C (with the
goofy exception of allowing all the args to a function to be variable
but there's no defined way of extracting such).
