So those should *support* C++11, but GCC 5.5 - and presumably earlier 5.x
versions - doesn't appear to *default* to C++11; the GCC 5.5 manual section on
C++ language standards supported, at
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-5.5.0/gcc/Standards.html#C_002b_002b-Language
says
The default, if no C++ language dialect options are given, is
-std=gnu++98.
i.e. C++98 with GNU extensions, so we'd have to explicitly ask for C++11 by
doing -std=gnu++11 (as we want the GCC extensions, as far as I know - we, or
Qt, may even expect them to be there if we're compiling with GCC).

That defaults to C++14:
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-7.3.0/gcc/Standards.html#C_002b_002b-Language
says
The default, if no C++ language dialect options are given, is
-std=gnu++14.

If
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xcode#Toolchain_versions
is to be believed, Xcode prior to 4.4 has Clang 3.1 or earlier, none of which
are claimed by the Clang Web site to support C++11, and Xcode 4.4 has Clang
4.0, which is claimed by the Clang Web site to support C++14.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xcode#4.x_series
claims that it "runs on both Mac OS X Lion (10.7) and OS X Mountain Lion
(10.8)", so the buildbot OS wouldn't have to be updated. However,
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xcode#Xcode_3.0_-_Xcode_4.x
claims that 4.4 doesn't have the Snow Leopard SDK, so if we're going to
continue to support Snow Leopard, we'd probably have to use the Lion SDK but
set the minimum deployment version to Snow Leopard.
