It's a much *larger* ad-hoc informally specified bug-ridden slow implementation of half of Common Lisp. :) C++11, in particular, adds lambdas to the language, for extra bonus lispiness. :)

(I was actually about ready to give up on C++ until C++11, which returned to the list of languages I don't mind *too* terribly.)
