Also as I mentioned elsewhere, I don't like the idea of adding 
such to the betterC subset.

If one wants classful behaviour in betterC, then I'd suggest 
somehow making classes work in betterC, and leaving structs 
without and possibility of classful stuff.  That keeps more 
closely to the spirit of C, and without any of the Simula-67 like 
C-with-Classes stuff.

Even then, I'd rather not have any form of classful behaviour 
(i.e. struct inheritance) in betterC, but that is obviously just 
my personal preference.
