Sorry, but it's needed for some ancient platform D has never and
will never exist/ed on in.

What platform is that?

Most compilers have switch a for specifying which language to compile as.

That's not the point. If a project uses C++, why give the files an 
extension of ".c"? I don't see any benefits what so ever from doing so 
and I am not aware of what compiler will only take in files with ".c" 
extensions.

While most C++ compilers do provide such a switch, it can easily be 
avoided by simply changing the file extension and let the compiler 
determine what type of data it contains (which is the purpose of a file 
extension in the first place).

Exactly. Even a capital .C is recognized as C++ source code if .cpp isn't  
desired.
