+ * Just a dummy C++ file that is linked to work around an automake
+ * bug: automake uses CXXLD when at least one source is C++, but when
+ * you link a static library with a C++ source, it uses CCLD.  This
+ * causes linker problems (undefined reference to 'operator
+ * delete(void*)'), because CCLD does not link with libstdc++.
+ *
+ * By linking with this empty C++ source, automake decides to use
+ * CXXLD.
