It could be done, but there is no sense in it, none if the ffmpeg
developers would use, test or maintain it, there is no point in
pretending to support C++ when we don't (esp. since there are C constructs
that do not even compile with a C++ compiler I don't think giving a
false impression is a good idea here).
