GCC 4.8.1, Clang 3.5, ICC 15 are feature-complete when it comes to C++11 core
language features. All of them are trailing behind on the implementation of
the Standard Library.
MSVC 2015 is almost complete, it's missing three features, two of which are
really important: constexpr and brace-initialisation in constructors.
If KDE wants to push the envelope, applications could begin requiring C++11 as
of next year. KF5 maybe in 2017.
