Please not - for the small libkernel_ppp.a this might suitable
(although I wouldn't do it), but not for a whole networking stack.
I certainly don't want to read 10 MB of net stack modules before going
online (slight exaggeration).
C is really not so bad that I would want to live with the bloat
currently introduced by a C++ solution.
And for your C++ object passed in C function: there doesn't have to be
any case where the other module must access that object, or else the
whole approach is kinda senseless.
But before I disapprove your solution, it might be better to actually
commit it to the repository, so that I can better see what you've done,
and where you are aiming at.
Adios...
Axel.
