Well my workgroup at DAQ Dataflow cared for C++ quality, but it was not 
the same everywhere.

That is why one of our projects was a C++ stress tester for parallel 
algorithms.

Still, the quality of the code there was way better that any C or C++ 
code that I have seen in the wild in the typical corporations, specially 
codebases that suffered the magic offshore wand.
