The proposed new standard for the C++ programming language, C++0x, has reached feature completeness. "This is 'it', feature-complete C++0x, including the major feature of 'concepts' which had its own extensive set of papers for language and library extensions (if you get the impression that concepts is a big feature, well, it is indeed easily the biggest addition we made in C++0x)."

This is why C++ introduced a wonder called references.
You can...in C++. Just use templates and operator overloading with your "structs" (which are just class's with public visibility by default), ignore constructors, destructors, inheritance and member functions and go for it. Nobody is stopping you.
If you use extern "C" {} blocks you'll even get C binary compatibility.
