I don't know of B+tree stuff, but the Whitewater Group has an ISAM "server"
for Windows.  You can use it with either their Actor language or C (or so
they say).

And we say it whole heartedly.  WinTrieve (that's it's name) uses a b-tree to
index the data in a database.  I'm pretty sure it's not a B+ tree, but there
really isn't that much difference between a normal B-tree and an B+ tree.
Oh, The C API (Applications Programmer Interface) works just fine and we
havn't had any real problems with it.  The same goes for the Actor interface.
