That depends on how high you set the bar. There are quite a few
compilers out there that are reasonably conformant to the standard
(e.g., GCC 3.4+, MSVC 7.1+, CodeWarrior 9+, anything EDG-2.45+-based),
and those should be supported. At this point, no library would get
rejected because it doesn't support the old, broken compilers out
there.
