I think it can be done, but you'll need to disable exception handling
and RTTI. You won't be able to use any C++ libraries. The build system
will need to be changed to call C++ compiler when needed.
Still, I think it would be an overkill. C is quite good for large
projects if used properly. Linux is fine with C. C also has checkers
such as sparse, but I'm not aware of C++ equivalents.
