That is the crucial question.  Apparently there are still a lot of
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS users out there so leaving them out in the cold does
not seem like a good option at the moment.  There may be other distros
(Debian Stable, Fedora 6?) that may also fall under this heading.  I
prefer to move cautiously when it comes to moving to C++11.
