(I guess you mean "Jerome"?)

Official POV-Ray does not use C++11 either, and still uses C++03 instead.

Maybe you mean that Jerome's HG-Povray uses a subset of C++03 that is
incompatible with C++11?

Well, that wasn't too difficult for him to do, because his HG-Povray is
based on an earlier version of POV-Ray 3.7, which itself wasn't
compatible with C++11.

Compatibility with C++11 has been established in the master branch by
now, but keeping up with that branch isn't too easy, as its architecture
is still in flux, so Jerome has opted to wait until the dust has
settled, so to speak.
