Sorry my wording wasn't sufficiently clear, both of these were always
planned for exactly the reason you list.

Yea, documenting the support for libc++ on Linux may be tough, but it
should be easy to cover the rest: libstdc++ should have the same version
requirements as GCC, and libc++ on OS X with any sufficiently new version
of clang should be good. Still important to document.
