Sorry, but I feel we are loosing  tack of the original focus of this 
thread: "what is a save replacement of multiple inheritance of classes ? "

  - Obviously interfaces do this job.

  - Seemingly this is independent of interfaces doing ref-counting.

  - Maybe other than with classes, ref-counting interfaces is rather safe.


In other words: *language* disregarding external stuff interfaces might 
*additionally* be useful to handle.

And hence the questions for me are
  - how are ref-counting and not ref counting interfaces distinguished 
when the programmer wants to use either type ? (and does this syntax 
make sense)
  - where/how is this clearly (disregarding external stuff interfaces 
might *additionally* be useful to handle) documented ?
