Can you elaborate on what the benefit would be of this change?  Granted,
Piglit is mostly C, but it has some C++ code as well.  Changing this source
file from C++ to C would mean that in the future, if we wanted to use C++
features in this test, or interface this code with some of Piglit's other
C++ code, we would have to switch it back to C++, or do some otherwise
unnecessary hack, like placing the C++-using functions in a separate file.
Although we're unlikely to need to make use of C++ in this test in the
future, it seems better to stay flexible, all other things being equal.
