MS4W builds are moving to VS2015, because PHP 7's requirement for that
compiler, but stable releases are done now with VS2012. (I've
officially moved away from the old VS2008)

What is the list of compilers that GDAL actively and accidentally
supports?
Currently, at least:
GCC >= 4.4 (actually must be 4.1 since this is what ancient mingw uses)
clang >= 3.something (3.0 probably)
VS >= 2008
ICC 15 probably
One aspect is to also consider the various analyzers used. I think
cppcheck has only partial C++11 support. I'd guess Coverity Scan should
have decent C++11 support but this is just a guess. CLang Static
Analyzer should likely work just fine with the C++11 supported by the
underlying clang compiler
How will that be impacted by a C++11 requirement?
GCC 4.8 is needed for C++11 I think. There are folks using recent GDAL
on older distros like Ubuntu 12.04 (which ships with gcc 4.6). I guess
they could switch to adding a PPA with a more recent toolchain.
For Visual Studio depends on the features we use. Would be good to have
VS2013 or even 2012. I'm CC'ing Jürgen Fischer to know if he has plans
regarding of the compiler version that will be used for OSGeo4W / QGIS 3.0
