No. It was implemented in April this year, shortly before the gcc-5 release.
I've pointed out compatibility issue immediately:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2015-04/msg00153.html

The were no behavioral changes at all after that patch went in.

No gcc-5 doesn't default to C++11 and the issue here has nothing to do with
C++98 vs. C++11.

Please try to get the facts strait, before posting long misleading replies.
