The patch looks fine to me (though it's not 100% obvious to me as not only
system headers are now no longer in extern "C" - which is why I simply
tried the un-wrapping).  So, if you think that's ok please commit it.

It certainly helps not to rely on compilers handling nested extern "foo"
correctly ...

Thanks,
Richard.
