No misunderstanding - for the features that require gcc >=4.6 and clang >=3.2, 
it was decided to use the macros*. For the features available in 4.5 and clang  
3.1 (freebsd compiler iirc) no macros (auto, lambdas, variadic templates, move 
semantics)

I don't agree that these /additional/ features are about the api. <algorithm> 
is an (IMO) immensely useful, especially with lambdas and std::bind for actual 
non exposed parts.
