It's legal C, but it's causing problems when I include the header in my
C++ file. I think (not sure) that it's not legal C++.
typedef struct IGMPI_Plugin
{
struct IGMPI_Plugin *Vtable;
}IGMPI_Plugin;does compile (not sure why I didn't try that earlier)..

I don't know what that error means, but the K&R (ANSI) book says:
struct-or-union-specifier: struct-or-union identifier(opt) { struct-declaration-list } struct-or-union identifier
So clearly, the identifier is optional. Either MS' compiler is broken, or the error indicates something else.
And if we need, I'll email Kernighan - apparantly he works here, too now. :P
