I was answering a specific point about the effect of a patch
on languages other than C and C++, since not many
people know Ada I thought it was useful to mention
that such a construct is unlikely to get past
the front-end in Ada so no back-end or shared front-end issue there.

No need to turn the discussion in a language feature flame war :).
