The truth doesn't matter though, as defaults will change as we go forward
in time, for all compilers, so the problem will not go away. It's trying to
fit a square peg in a round hole, it starts to look like a Hackaton to me.
The thing that should work and the only thing that can be guaranteed to
work is when your whole code base is compiled with the same compiler with
the same standard (std::string ?). The rest is just a waste of time and
resources, which could be used more fruitfully.
