If you search the archives you can find a simple kbuild patch to introduce C++ support. OK, googled a little: http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0509.2/0549.html I wrote it for someone that requested it long ago - and never applied it to vanilla kernel. They had done the hard stuff themself - adapting the rest of the kernel to be compileable by a C++ compiler. Sam
