      We have ported Postgres over to the C++ language (C++11 standard).

      Our goal is to use certain features of the C++ language and its
      standard library to simplify coding, improve code reuse, and avoid
      bugs. Peter's article titled `Moving
        to C++` was a source of inspiration for us.

    
    does this compile with the non-GCC compilers that postgres gets
      built with, for instance, IBM XLC++ on AIX, Oracle Studio C++ on
      Solaris, Microsoft Visual C++ on MS Windows, CLang on BSD ?   what
      about popular platforms like RHEL 6, where gcc is 4.4.7 ?
