I think you misunderstood OP's point.There is this issue: both GCC and CLang (the two major, FLOSS C++ compilers) will be written in C++ soon. CLang was already C++, and GCC is in the process of being ported to C++11. So, effectively, newer revisions of C++ will only be built by compilers written in C++, as we use either a LLVM based compiler or GCC to build it, and this also applies to pretty much all of the more "traditional" languages, like Fortran and ADA.
