If I weren't so far behind, I could help more here, but my general
suggestion for this is to point at the ObjC book for the description
of ObjC proper, then add a couple pages at the end of chapter 6,
"Extensions to the C++ Language" that basically say "mutually
oblivious" in different ways and with examples. A simple enumeration
of what works and what doesn't should be pretty quick to compose,
since you presumably had that in your head while hacking. :-)
