Having two different names for a C++ compile means that detection requires 
two lines of code instead of one. For example:

if ( line.find( "C++-action " ) != string::npos
|| line.find( "vc-C++ " ) != string::npos

If that were the only special case, it wouldn't be a problem. But there are 
quite a few more special cases and irregularities. I'm afraid the code 
will be fragile as a result.

Anyhow, maybe V2 can just update the .xml file directly, and I won't have 
to worry about it.

PS: Here is a sample of one of the .xml files. (It looks better when it 
isn't word wrapped in the wrong places by an email program!)
