I am trying to get  C++ going.  I have selected to generate C++ code, and
now when _pstart.c compiles as part of project I get the following error
message:

Error   : identifier '__static_init' redeclared
was declared as: 'void (*)()'
now declared as: 'void ()'
_psstart.c line 17   extern "C" void __static_init();

Inside of _pstart.c, as part of a conditional compile (#ifdef __cplusplus),
the function is  indeed redefined from the definition in __rts_info_t__.h
where it is defined as 

#define SECTION __declspec(data)

SECTION extern void (*__static_init)(void);

Clearly one defines a function of a particular type, and the other a
pointer to same function.  I cannot modify either file in an attempt to get
this to work without knowing
whether or not  __static_init is a function or a pointer to function.  My
guess?  I should try commenting  out the redefine in _pstart.c first.  It
looks wrong to me.

Please help... I could use a definitive answer on this.
