This is the case in Debian releases:
squeeze with gcc-4.4

$ g++ -o utest u.c
u.c: In function ‘int main()’:
u.c:5: error: ‘char32_t’ was not declared in this scope
u.c:5: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘c’
u.c:6: error: ‘u32string’ is not a member of ‘std’
u.c:6: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘u’

$ g++ -std=c++11 -o utest u.c
cc1plus: error: unrecognized command line option "-std=c++11"

Ok, so gcc 4.4 is not going to work.

According to https://wiki.debian.org/LTS, squeeze has EOLed a year ago.

wheezy with gcc-4.7

$ g++ -o utest u.c
u.c: In function ‘int main()’:
u.c:5:4: error: ‘char32_t’ was not declared in this scope
u.c:5:13: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘c’
u.c:6:4: error: ‘u32string’ is not a member of ‘std’
u.c:6:19: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘u’

$ g++ -std=c++11 -o utest u.c
(no output)

Ok, so with wheezy, and going forward, you should be ok by explicitly using the -std=c++11 compiler flag.

CentOS 5 also comes with gcc 4.4, and CentOS 5 EOLs and the end of this month. But looks like CentOS 6 still uses gcc 4.4, until 2020. That's likely to be problematic, but I'd still like to verify this. It's remotely possible that Red Hat patched in some C++11 support in their build of gcc 4.4.
