RE: [boost] Finalizing a class

I think the problem is that we need to recognize that the C++ committee may want to adopt "restrict" into C++ as well to maintain compatibility. I think it is just prudence to never use a C (or C++) keyword as an identifier even in a case where it is technically legal.

I cannot see how this is a problem for a C++ class which simply isn't
legal C99 anyway...
