Agreed. But you do have checks for __cpluscplus in some of the other 
config/stdlib header files so I made those patches to conform. Maybe you 
could now remove those others, and just ignore those patches I sent.

Attached are two more, which are relevant, and one which is a cosmetic 
spelling change which confused me when I first read it and means almost 
the opposite of what you meant to say in a comment. These are the last I 
found.
