OK, and I agree about the configure issues. My intention was to change the suffix as I rewrote each file into proper C++, but given Christian’s and your concerns, I’ll rename all of the files in libqof as soon as I finish fixing up the Windows build. However, I don’t think changing files one by one is wise: It will result in libraries with objects compiled with different compilers, and I worry that that will introduce difficult to understand bugs. That’s not a matter for immediate concern, though, as I expect libqof will consume several months before I’ll start on another directory.
