That basically is the main argument for keeping it. On the other hand I
think that this practice was a very stupid idea, blurring C and C++ as
if they were one thing. Which they are concerning the issue at hand
(linking) they are not even remotely.
I am simply undecided on this issue...

P.S.: I always wondered where people saw that big difference between
Java and C, except for the libraries you use. Sure, you have "objects"
but most C code turned out to be just as object-oriented without those
special-purpose helpers...
