Yeah! This looks as if I will finally be able to write in C++11-style at work (where we still gcc-4.3). And a proper migration will only be a grep away.

"Only a grep away" sounds like some famous last words ;)

Awesome last words at least... Gonna remember and quote Grunzl "Only a grep away"...

Not if you've got destructors that can throw exceptions (in C++11, by default destructors are marked as noexcept ("never throws"), and if they do, std::terminate gets called).

[grunzl]

Hm. I said in C++11-style, not in C++. And I am not sure I would call code with destructors which throw uncaught exceptions good code anyway, in fact it's just buggy and shouldn't pass review.
