.C is valid, but at least for GCC it is equivalent to all of the other
non-.c options - i.e., interpret as c++. Which is why I am wondering
about the case that ends up with the build system internally
processing this.

If it is changed to permitting .C files to be compiled as C instead of
C++ (which the patch seems to imply), that sounds incorrect to me.
