Yes -- see my post above. Syntax and semantics simple enough to be easily statically analyzed (both by humans and tools like lint) are a language feature that C has over C++.
More generally, many people see significant value in the very property of C that it doesn't let you do things that C++ lets you do. That's why the argument that "C++ is a superset" and "there's no good reason not to simply use a C++ compiler on your C code" is bogus.
