I can slap an extern "C" somewhere in the header file. Actually, done
already, so the c++ interface would be the same as the C interface for now
:)

Well, C++ is fully compatrible with C libraries. What kind of functionality
would you like to have? Would you want to be able to specify objects
and methods instead of a callback and a data pointer?
This could be done trivially using wrapper functions (without variadic
templates, unfortunately, all provided mosty manually).
If you want, I could craft an example wrapper function that could be adapted.
Instead of:
eio_unlink ("/etc", 0, cb, this);
You'd write this in C++ (example):
eio_unlink ("/etc", 0, this, &class::method);
Or, if we moved the priority to the back and have it a default value:
eio_unlink ("/etc", object, &class::method);
this would be slightly more natural then the C interface.
