I don't understand the rationale for the no-c++ module, let alone making
any other modules depend on it.
What is the issue with compiling C code with a C compiler and C++ code
with a C++ compiler? That seems to be me the proper solution.
Compiling C code with a C++ compiler seems like a good recipe for
problems, and I don't think it is something gnulib should force on users
unless there is a compelling use-case.
Having the support optional in gnulib is fine by me, i.e. each
maintainer that wants the behaviour would add the no-c++ module and
adapt their build infrastructure as appropriate.
Without understanding, my preference is to not make other modules depend
on no-c++.
