There is little difference to begin with.
If you call a member function of Wiring, say Wiring::foo(int),
then actually the "C" function Wiring_foo(Wiring* this, int a)
will be called.  So, in all cases you will need and pass a
pointer to the Wiring object.  Optimization might occur only
later, if foo can be optimized.

Agreed.
