More complete C++11 support in xlC

PMR 59710 300 624 showed that the support for the standard C++ library, C++11 level, is incomplete.

Please speed up the work on that. In particular, unique_ptr is not present in the standard library, shared_ptr is in a nonstandard namespace std::tr1, lambda expressions do not seem to be implemented...

    XL C/C++ for AIX, V16.1 now adds support for C++11 via xlclang and xclang++. Please test this version of the compiler. If any further improvements are required, please open a new RFE. Thanks.
