Oh, there we are in violent agreement about the end result! Overall C/C++ has (arguably) become too complex for simple things, and (unarguably IMNHSHO!) become too poorly specified for complex things. Trying to be "all things to all people" is rarely successful. Nowadays C (and even more with C++) is part of the problem rather than part of the solution. The abstractions, which were a useful valid advance in K&R days, have become *very* leaky over the years with the advance of technology. Hells teeth, it is only recently that C/C++ has recognised the need for a memory model to deal with all the subtle behaviour in SMP and NUMA machines. I reserve judgement on whether it will be a success; even starting from a clean slate Java had to revise its memory model!
