That is the crucial question. Apparently there are still a lot of Ubuntu 14.04 LTS users out there so leaving them out in the cold does not seem like a good option at the moment. There may be other distros (Debian Stable, Fedora 6?) that may also fall under this heading. I prefer to move cautiously when it comes to moving to C++11.
