It may work if the declarations are from an external
.h file, but this is not an intentionally supported
feature.

In 0.9.4, external declarations not inside a "cdef extern
from" block are wrapped in "extern C" when compiled as C++.

Eventually there will be a way of explicitly declaring
external linkages as C or C++.
