Does calling C++ libs work in the latest version of Nim though? I mean real C++ interfaces, not C ones that just happen to use C++ in their implementation.

That's still the case.

Only Java and C? What about C++, JavaScript, Objective C/Swift, Python, etc.? And there's also stuff like MATLAB and R, which are the defacto standard in their own areas ...

Yes. I wouldn't if it was bzr though.
