> I spent a decade watching C++ painfully slowly add more advanced template support and... well, that's about it. After a million iterations of "for (mylisttype::const_iterator i ..." they finally added ranged for loops.

C++ was first standardized in '98. Nothing happened for more 10 year (in particular no new advanced template support) unless you count the very minor bug fixes in C++03. The next revision, C++11, added ranged for loops.

Compilers don't strictly adhere to standards, and I'm far more concerned with things like whether my compiler crashes, how godawful the error messages are, and whether the bundled STL even functions reliably.
