No. The standard doesn't mention an ABI.

Some implementations' std::string and std::list have always been compatible with the new requirements, so don't have to change.

So more accurately, the C++11 standard requires certain properties of std::string and std::list which are incompatible with GCC's existing implementations of those types.
