Well, the main thing is that the C++ compiler chokes on the C stub
file created.  So as long as it creates and tries to compile that with
the compiler given in '-c' then it'll crash.  I guess another solution
would be a separate '-c' flag for the compiler used for the stub :)

I think it's not too big a burden since for ghc it's just -I$(ghc
--print-libdir)/include, and Duncan makes a good case for requiring
it.
