Of course, there's no reason why you couldn't use GC with C++; there 
are some good libraries for this.

My feeling is that using C++ with GC and the STL (and C++ strings) 
would result in considerably fewer C style bugs (stray pointers, 
buffer overflows, multiple frees, etc.) and faster development.
