You could write a header with some macro goo something like this:
#if defined __cplusplus && defined (QRUPDATE_USE_REFERENCES)
#define QRUPDATE_PTR_ARG(T) T&
#else
#define QRUPDATE_PTR_ARG(T) T*
#endif
#if defined (__cplusplus)
extern "C" {
#endif
F77_FUNC_RET_T
F77_FUNC (qrupdatefcn, QRUPDATEFCN) (const QRUPDATE_PTR_ARG (double),
QRUPDATE_PTR_ARG (double), int)
...
#if defined (__cplusplus)
}
#endif
But I'm not sure it is really worth it.
