Comment (by jonesc@…):

 I provide a variant for the same reason as providing various different gcc
 and clang vesions. ROOT provides an interactive build environment, and
 thus the USER might have a particular reason to select a certain compiler.
 In the same way the user might not want to enabled c++11 in that in build
 environment, and as this environment is defined by the compiler used to
 build ROOT, a variant is needed to turn it off if required.

 I can only test on OSX10.8, nothing older, as I do not have access to
 those OSes. On OSX10.8 though, the variant works fine enabled with all the
 compilers I can test. For those that do not support c++11, the features
 are just disabled automatically. If someone else wants to check on older
 OSX versions, that would be great.
