I write code for expensive embedded processors and it's still C all the way, with C++ recently starting to make a (small) appearance. As such I'm acutely aware of the wonderful incompatibilities between C and C++. My favourite is this:

    struct point { int x; int y; };
    int main() { struct point p = { .y = 0, .x = 0 }; }

    error: designator order for field ‘point::x’ does not match declaration order
