Then I'd vote for Thiago's solution. The only drawback with it is that it

Still quite a sizeable population of users of older Mac OS X versions out there,
who don't have proper C++11 support unless they do a libc++ conversion hack. And
even then I'm not 100% sure that initialiser lists are available and/or work
reliably.

Which versions are you referring to, specifically?

Only versions 10.10-10.12 have security support, 10.9 appears ended now?, and so for the organisation I work for we use that as the cutoff for our support as well. All these versions support C++11 with the supported xcode for the release.

There are practical limits to how far back one can support MacOS X, no thanks to Apple's virtualisation restrications and the pain of administering stuff which is not intended to be or good at being run headless or virtually. We take the line of if Apple don't support it then neither do we; three versions is plenty enough of a support and testing burden as it is.
