I have nodejs 16.0 and g++ 11.0.1 20210324. When I try to initialize with the package manager bootstrap, it tries to compile node-sass by using node-gyp. Compiling fails with:

This is a node-sass issue. remove_cv_t is a C++14 feature but node-sass specifies C++11: https://github.com/sass/node-sass/blob/4115e9de35a26a6c27604e22c9c1981bf19b0f5f/binding.gyp#L31.
