C++ works in the kernel enough to get the stuff that I/O Kit uses working [1].  However, this support isn't just restricted to I/O Kit KEXTs, so an an NKE should be able to use that same subset of C++.  The tools and sample code aren't really set up to do this, so you might need to do some futzing.

Share and Enjoy
