+  * harbour/include/hbdefs.h
+    ! fixed PHB_FUNC declaration. 'extern "C"' can be removed only for
+      BORLAND and other buggy compilers which may not accept it but
+      not for. In some platforms it's very important to keep correct
+      declarations because without this flag final binaries will not
+      work.
