Did you consider also porting to Ada95 - eventually linking to C++ parts ?
Ada is structured like Pascal and you will escape from the "incompatible
dialects" problem. Of course, it depends on your needs. e.g. if the
application is DJGPP-only and not to be ported, there can be more specific
solutions.
