It doesn't seem to me that enabling a config macro as well is really all that
much.

Since we're still in the heavy development phase of the cycle, I personally
think that this is the absolute _best_ time to do things like enabling C++11.
We're not making any major releases now, so we have plenty of time to make
tweaks if small things break, or back out the changes entirely if large things
break.  It's really not a big deal, from my perspective. That's what this part
of the devel cycle is _for_. :)
