Description of problem:
When compiling a c++ (not c) file with gcc, linker reports an error
"undefined reference to `FascistCheck(char *, char *)' ". With .c files
everything works as it should.

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a simple c++ file (test.cpp)

#include <stdio.h>
#include <crack.h>

main()
{
        printf("%s",FascistCheck("12345","/usr/share/dict/cracklib_dict"));
}

2. Try to compile it as:
gcc -o test  ./test.cpp -lcrack 

3.Get an error - something like this:
/tmp/cc02lWnO.o: In function `main':
/tmp/cc02lWnO.o(.text+0x1e): undefined reference to `FascistCheck(char *,
char *)'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
#
4. Rename file from test.cpp into test.c, compile and run it - everything
works.

Actual Results:  in case of c++ file:
/tmp/cc02lWnO.o: In function `main':
/tmp/cc02lWnO.o(.text+0x1e): undefined reference to `FascistCheck(char *,
char *)'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

in case of c file:
#it is too short   - (bad password)

Expected Results:  I excect it to work the way the c file works.
