I don't know about exceptions (they are forbidden where I work) but any amount of C++ would significantly improve this implementation. There is code all over this library that allocates and deletes buffers in structs passed in as function arguments, i.e. other code's structs that nobody should be dicking around with except through constructors, destructors, and accessors. This code would also be about half as long in straight-forward C++.
