So it looks like we've got two votes for C/C++ so far.  OO would
make things a lot cleaner, so so far C++ is the winner.

I don't have a lot of experience with C++, but it's close enough to
C that I've been able to do some C++ hacking here and there.  I
wouldn't object to going with C++.

More votes?
