I have a library of C routines that I want to use from C++.  Of
course, the function declarations in the header file are in C form
without any argument specifications (e.g., int f();).  Is there a
trick to get G++ to accept these declarations?  If not, is there a
solution that doesn't require me to make a separate header file for
G++ (with the '...' argument notation)?  How do other people solve
this problem?

Thanks,
John
