   Do other people share my feeling that C++ is not quite
   making the grade as far as code reuse goes? 

I wonder why users of other languages aren't publicly complaining
about having these problems.  There are substantial libraries for Ada
and Eiffel, and their newsgroups are quiet.  ML and Scheme users don't
seem to be complaining.  The Oberon and Modula-3 crowds seem
optimisic.  Why all the noise here?
