There are only three external languages in those annexes, and C++
is not one of them. From a user perspective the syntax for
external language interfaces may seem easy, but depending on
the platform implementing it might be more difficult. To some
extent GNAT has an easier time of that because they can say that
GNU C (for instance) is the one with which they are compatible
on multiple platforms.
