Aha, I discovered more, KMimeMagic::findBufferFileType will use refineResult()
method to add "src" and "hdr" to the mimetype. KMimeMagic::findBufferType
will obviously not because it does not know the filename and can not tell
whether the buffer is source file or header.

So basically magic is ok, but applications are to be fixed to use
findBufferFileType instead of findBufferType when they know about the 
file name.

Still, I'd like kmimemagic to be smarter and never return x-c++
without src or hdr (see attachment).
