these should be removed from all ports, thats fine with me.

the MacPorts clang compilers, or the system ones, where supported
(actually, do any of them support c++11). Should the clang variants also
be removed, I thought the issues that affect the gcc compilers didn't
affect these ?
I'm sure that the C++ support works great when using the Macports clang++
compilers along with the host libc++. The problem is that other ports
will be using libstdc++. They will end up being incompatible with the
C++11 variant of this port. If we want to support C++11 on Mountain Lion
and earlier, we need to have a flag day where all of our C++ ports start
using libc++ instead of libstdc++. That is going to be very messy, and I
don't see it happening in 2013.
