For someone familiar with the C++ standard but not C++ culture/history, 
the iso14882:1998 form would be natural.  (Though if going literally by 
what appears on every page of the standard, it should be -std='ISO/IEC 
14882:1998(E)'.)

Presumably your specs reorganisation can make all the -std options, and
-ansi, alias down to the few values cc1/cc1plus/cpplib need to know about,
including having -ansi become -std=c89 when compiling C and -std=c++98
when compiling C++ (possibly both on the same driver command line)?
