As I understand it g++ and libstdc++ now have a mechanism to pick what version of C++ you want to use. libstdc++ apparently supports both the C++98 and C++11 and ABIs. The details about how Debian is handling the change in libstdc++6 is at https://wiki.debian.org/GCC5 I don't understand enough about https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=66145 and C++ to know if that means there are changes needed in the source.
