-std is not supported for C++. Why did the documentation make you think
that is was? Perhaps we can improve the documentation.
It would make sense to support -std for C++, with possible values being
iso14882:1998 and g++98, but it's never going to make sense to specify a C
standard (ISO 9899) version when compiling C++, and there ought to be
appropriate errors given if you try to do so; the lack of error messages
is a bug.
