I re-ran all the failed builds and all the C++ applications
overnight - there were no additional warnings reported, so the list
stands at:

dnsmasq-2.40-1.fc8.src.rpm
freedroidrpg-0.10.3-1.fc8.src.rpm
hping3-0.0.20051105-7.fc7.src.rpm
Io-language-20070710-2.fc8.src.rpm
libtirpc-0.1.7-10.fc8.src.rpm
mcrypt-2.6.6-2.fc8.src.rpm
openslp-1.2.1-7.fc8.src.rpm
perl-Imager-0.60-1.fc8.src.rpm

none of which are actually C++.  dnsmasq upstream is already patched
to fix this (thanks jima).

Thanks,
Matt
