* It is a proof-of-concept implementation to show that porting Postgres over to C++ is feasible with minimal changes. It is not official.
* We need to refactor the increment operator because the variables are of enumeration type.
* We have not yet tested compilation with clang. But, I presume that minimal changes would be required to support compilation with clang. PRs are welcome!
* Not really. Our hope is that the PostgreSQL core team would consider gradually migrating over to C++. I think that this refactoring can be done without breaking external interfaces.
Thanks for the positive feedback.

And did you speak with any of the pgsql core team yet? Might be worth investigating, whether they even consider it... I don't see the point, if they don't. Good luck with they project, might look into it some time soon!
