Using C++ on AIX will greatly increase the bootstrap time on AIX because configure is much slower, even using Bash instead of AIX Ksh. And, as this libstdc++ typo demonstrates, using C++ with the development version of libstdc++ makes the bootstrap process more fragile because bootstrap now relies on a complex, additional codebase that is not stable. GMP, MPFR, MPC, CLooG and PPL add large, external codebases, but at least they do not change from build to build, even if they are built in the tree. - David
