+===============================
+
+This branch can be compiled with a C++ compiler. The steps, however,
+are manual.  Basically, you do a regular build:
+
+       ./bootstrap.sh && ./configure && make -j
+       rm *.o          # top level directory only
+       make CC=g++     # or clang++
+       make check
+
+Some of the changes should be propogated back into the mainline
+version, but I haven't had time for that.
+
+I also haven't decided if I want to move the rest of the changes
+into the mainline version; in some ways they make the code less clear,
+due to different scoping rules between C and C++
+
