Yeah, I commented on the patches at
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/e8e7e5a7-0308-2c36-d32a-7aab16ba498c%40iki.fi.
It was very cursory, but I figured that would be sufficient feedback for
now, for Peter to proceed with the first few straightforward patches in
the series. I don't think there's consensus that we want to do more than
that, to actually switch to C++.

I think this has gotten enough attention, for the commitfest workflow.
The workflow is flexible, depending on the nature of patch. But of
course, if you're interested, feel free to review and comment anyway!
