What’s New in Emacs 24.4

From what I see on the extended support of C++ parsing, I doesn't look very promising for handling C++11 features (let alone C++14). Truly disappointing.

I know this is a "if you really need it, why don't you work on it yourself instead of complaining?". I've tried making sense of the cc-mode source, without any success at all.

You may want to take a look at irony-mode. Do not expect any rich semantic features from the stock c-mode.

It's not rich semantic features that are missing, but basic stuff such as C++11 keywords, handling of >>, etc. Those seem to be available in a cc-mode branch, but since cc-mode is maintained separately from Emacs, it takes more effort than it should to have an updated version of cc-mode in Emacs.

Nowadays using package.el is mandatory.

I use irony-mode, which is a minor mode under cc-mode. They do different things.
