Comment (by cjones051073):

 "If the older systems used their ancient clang only to bootstrap to
 clang-9.0, and then used that for the main compiler, life would be easier
 but the fix less pure."

 Personally, I don't view this as really as a 'less pure fix', just a
 pragmatic acceptance of the reality of the situation, which is projects
 increasingly assume c++11 (or newer) is enabled by default. If we simply
 arranged to do this by default (maybe always, maybe only when 2011
 standard is specified), we would save ourselves a lot of hassle in
 MacPorts, that is just going to get more and more common the more upstream
 just assumes this is the default. So yes, I would do something like this.
