I whole heartedly agree. One thing that may help RHEL6 is that anaconda actually can install/build gcc4.8 in user space: https://anaconda.org/anaconda/gcc/. Note: it does require root to install some dependencies, but doesn't override the system gcc.
While this is not a complete solution for many applications, for python and python related packages it really is a god-send. We have some legacy systems stuck on RHEL6 and have had to use this to compile some newer packages. As a side note, the latest Xcode update has deprecated libstdc++ which is par-for-the-course dealing with Apple's style of updating. This will likely require recompilation and new packages on Anaconda which will probably be painful.
