When did you ask this? I don't recall you asking it... and there are
several files with c+ keywords in use (only a couple of which are
recent).

No need to swear. It makes it harder to reply in an unbiased fashion.

Yep, this is a C source file. Its allowed to use C++ keywords, and
'this' accurately represented the behaviour intended. In C++ that would
become a method on the object, and 'this' would still be valid.

What nonsense?

Yes. There is still many non C++ safe things though. We iterate through
enums without defining a ++ operator. We typecast from void * to structs
all over the place.

Anyway, I'm not sure what your point is in this email - are you saying
that you will be happy if squid goes clean C++ across the board?
