perhaps it is possible. modern c++ is quite different from the previous incarnations of c++ but when you are writing kernel code.. you have in a space where a lot of stuff is not available : you are running in the kernel context. the userland part is waiting for you to give control back, so your code must be fast, do the required job, and be predictible. we cannot have a line of code that will, sometimes, create a huge cpu or memory load because a lot of stuff is going to happen behind it. that's why C is so effective... the kernel context is not a place where you can have garbage collection or classes-stuff that will happen when you're supposed to get control back to userland as quickly as possible.
