Does it require a special mode to be set (such as std=c++0x for GCC) or
are all these features available by default?

If it does require a special mode, are some features still accessible in
default, C++03, mode?

By the way, decltype is available in C++03 in GCC through
"__decltype__", but the boost macros only detect the C++0x mode "decltype".
Shouldn't those macros be improved to allow accessing those features
even in normal C++03 mode?
