Hello All.

* Carbon copied to Andrew Clarke

I'm working on some refactoring in GoldEd. Mainly on reworking dangerous code like memset/calloc for non-POD classes and sprintf -> snprintf.

My question is which C++ stnadard version may be appropriate in GoldEd? AFAIK it still build by some anciend compilers which may not support even C++11.

If it's possible to start using C++11, code may be made much safer with modern features like smart pointers, variadic templates, brace initialization, etc.

What do you guys think about that?
