For us, having multiple compilers installed at non-standard
locations is very common. I can't say I know where all our customers
install our toolchains, but we routinely answer questions about
parallel installs, and we also frequently recommend parallel
installs as well. I've never viewed multiple-compiler installs
as being a big complication.

If we're really worried about requiring C++-11 and the impact on
the users who build GDB, we could perhaps just organize a poll
that asks users how this would impact them, and then request
participation on gdb-announce.
