At the CloudStack project we recently switched from Java 6 to Java 7 and
we said that from version X we required Java 7 on the system.

For Ceph, what keeps us from saying that version H (after Giant)
requires a C++11 compliant compiler?

That might rule out Ubuntu 12.04 and CentOS6/RHEL6, but does that really
matter that much for something 'new' like Ceph?
