In the C++11 discussion back in January
(http://llvm.1065342.n5.nabble.com/Using-C-11-language-features-in-LLVM-itself-td53319.html)
there seemed to be some kind of consensus for 2010 being a reasonable
minimum. Perhaps this is a good time to break compatibility
officially.

Actually, whatever did happen to using C++11? No-one mentioned
anything about it after that thread.
