I think the immediate question is how many packages like googletest are

Again: it would have been broken either way. Mixing different C++
compilers in one tree simply doesn't work.

That's not what I meant... I'm just trying to identify packages that
need to be fixed right now. These packages are not going to build on
CentOS 6 as they stand.
The best way fix the the problem is a separate issue.
We could add GCC_REQD=4.8 to all of them, but that should probably be
wrapped in .if ${OPSYS} == Linux || other GCC-based systems.
Clang-based systems like Mac and some BSDs can use their base compiler
and shouldn't pull in a GCC dep for this.
On the other hand, I don't see an effective difference between modifying
all these packages and making USE_LANGUAGES=c++11 imply GCC_REQD=4.8, at
least on Linux and other GCC-based system. We seem to end up with the
same mix of tool chains either way, but it's just various GCC versions,
which is not likely to cause problems.
Cheers,
JB
