Oh! OK. Heh. I don't think I've ever had the pleasure of needing or using 
inner classes before, in any language, so it didn't leap out at me.

Oh! And A::B means class B inside class A, not class A inside class B. Wow, 
that confused me for a bit.

I see that. Yes, that could work cleanly, if I wanted to redeclare every 
function exported by DirectFB. Easier to kludge it in *this* case, but I'll 
remember the trick for another time where I'm writing actual production 
code. :-)

(Indeed, I'm doing the same thing with the "Player" vs "Player_private" 
except I'm not making it an inner class. I'll have to think if that would 
help anything.)

   I ordered stamps from Zazzle that read "Place Stamp Here".
