Could you please suggest a specific patch, in "diff -u" format?  The
point is that all we try to do is to support C compilers.  This
includes C++ compilers masquerading as C compilers.  It does not
include support for C++ features like C++ destructors.

I'd prefer that a C++ expert write this disclaimer.

No, not if the compiler defines __cplusplus.  If the compiler defines
__cplusplus, yacc.c does not use memcpy at all.
