That's hardly the only change you will have to make to get the headers
to pass through a C++ compiler without complaint.  How many existing
applications do you want to risk breaking?

ParamNo probably isn't a widely used node type, but there are four
structs with fields named 'typename' and one with a field named 'class'
just in parsenodes.h.

I think that before we start making changes with C++ cleanness as a
goal, we should try to get a precise idea of the extent of the changes
that would be needed, and then estimate how much user code might
reference the fields we'd need to rename.
