compilerCheck.R
##' Helper function to establish minimal compiler versions, currently limited
##' only to \code{g++} which (particularly for older RHEL/CentOS releases) is
##' too far behind current C++11 standards required for some packages.
##'
##' This function looks up \code{g++} (as well as optional values in the
##' \code{CXX} and \code{CXX1X} environment variables) in the \code{PATH}. For
##' all values found, the output of \code{g++ -v} is analyzed for the version
##' string, which is then compared to the given minimal version.
##' @title Check for Minimal (g++) Compiler Version
##' @param minVersion An object of type \code{package_version}, with a default
##' of version 4.6.0
##' @return A boolean value is returned, indicating if the minimal version is
##' being met
##' @author Dirk Eddelbuettel

## TODO: maybe not limit to gcc/g++
## TODO: maybe be smarter about combination of path, CXX and CXX1X ?
## TODO: maybe make env.var optional arguments too
