Subject: request: get the linux compiler to compile using the c++ compiler

I tried changing the make file to compile with c++, it compiled (this was freebsd though), but wouldn’t boot. Couldn’t figure out how to debug, but I estimated the bzimage was corrupt

Anyone want to volunteer and figure it out? Maybe get it working so we can have smart pointers, classes, and templates, along with the c++ feature set? Just for those who want it, maybe we can fork linux (cinx?)
