That doesn't really seem likely unless ODBM_File.xs is a C++ file, which I doubt it is.

    First of all, it's ODBM_File.c being compiled, not ODBM_File.xs. And yes, it's a C file, not a file C++.

    It wouldn't make much sense to use a C++ compiler to compile it (cause it would give you the errors you see), but that doesn't have anything to do with the likeliness of it happening.

    Did you check what compiler is being used?
