description
Modified existing c.vim and cpp.vim (into cpp11.vim and cpp11_cbase.vim) to add support for new language features found in C++11.

* Initialiser lists and lambdas no longer cause curly error highlighting ({} allowed within parentheses).
* constexpr keyword added.

I'm adding features as I hit them - if something is bugging you and not yet added, let me know.

NOTE TO ALL:
===========
I've been working on a completely new syntax script from the ground up as extending these existing scripts is just too difficult as C++11
is a very different beast from the original C support that the scripts were based on.

I expect to have a working release of the new script up here and on github just after the new year.
