Have you looked at the Mac OSX I/O Kit?  It's entirely C++ (with some
pretty stringent restrictions) and is really only used for device
discovery.  As far as I'm concerned, it's just about the only
appropriate use for C++ in the kernel and I would drop my support even
for that if I were introduced to something better.  I haven't yet looked
at K.
