We should be able to use anything on this list which is marked 4.3 or
4.4, <https://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx0x.html>.

 (Note that nullptr is not supported until 4.6. We have the libcompat
shim to cope with that. Just use NULL as before.).

Thing marked YES on this list
<https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.4/cxx0x_status.html> are probably usable,
but since it was draft work there were changes to a few features in
later versions.

NOTE: we also seem to be hitting some STL differences.

The current build failure on CentOS 7 appears to be that the RHEL STL
differs from the official published documentation for that version.
Namely that std::list::erase() takes a const_iterator, the RHEL
templates still have it taking a non-const.
