In all cases the function type is the same.

The difference is because with c++ && shared library, the code ends up in 
gnuv3_pass_by_reference(), which means it’s using the GNU G++ Version 3 ABI,
whereas with any other options (non shared or c) it ends up in
default_pass_by_reference().

Looking at the doc for GNU G++ Version 3 ABI:
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/manual/abi.html
The library needs to be linked against libstdc++.so to use it.

A quick ldd shows only the c++ .so is linked against it.
