gccxml is currently based on GCC 4.2's parser and there is no C++11 support.

The --gccxml-compiler option is only for simulating the preprocessor of
another compiler.

There is discussion about updating the internal parser here:

 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.compilers.gccxml/658

but AFAIK no progress has been made since then.

I suggest looking at Clang and its libraries:

 http://clang.llvm.org/

as an alternative.
