No!

You should first discuss this with people that work with customers :)

@mjklemm, @TerryLWilmarth

Moving from C to C++ compiler while avoiding libc++ dependencies was the best we could get.

Many users rely on the fact that you can compile different parts of the code with different OpenMP compilers, link it all together and it still works. Pulling in a libc++ dependency will brick this workflow for users.
