Herbert Schildt, author of The Complete C++ Reference (NOT C Unleashed) rehabilitated on wikipedia

The article below contained a serious typo, my error, and I will post
this main article just to clarify the issue at the top level.

Richard Heathfield, a well-known poster in this newsgroup, edited C
Unleashed.

I got a non-anonymous wikipedia editor to remove the libel from the
Schildt article, which apparently had been created in order to post
criticism of Schildt, but under stress due to thread vandalism, I
mistyped the header of the article below.

If anyone knows if the header can be fixed, let me know.

Again, my apologies for this error.
