I've seen similar issues with GCC 4.7.2.  I thought that this was
expected, so I didn't report it as a bug.

It might be a third-party library which changes ABI when compiled as
C++11 instead of C++98, though.  But that would be an argument against
automatically defaulting to the latest supported C++ standard as well,
wouldn't it?
