Things like having a C compiled grammar call back into C++ code. 
Namespaces and other C++ constructs get in the way.  Wrapper code 
consists of a lot of typedefs and function definitions to customise the 
behaviour of the generated parser/lexer.  Being able to subclass is one 
bonus of a C++ runtime.
