That’s because both are “more or less” some GCC toolchain and provides
similar subset of files.  Here, the version of the both default
toolchains does not match (14 vs 11).  Since the profile is built using
the command line order, then depending on which one comes first, you
have one version or the other for some of these files.

And as you can see, the compiler is g++ version 14 but using files from
version 11…

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ readlink -f /gnu/store/hhzpa2yx8cz92cgm7xjpd2pp6pk74g96-profile/include/c++/type_traits
/gnu/store/piai5ba5fx901hr7pwnz2b9vysrrjmlh-gfortran-11.4.0/include/c++/type_traits
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

…and bang!

If both are at 11, then it works as expected:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ cat main.cpp 
#include <iostream>

int main(void) {
    std::cout << __cplusplus;

    return 0;
}

$ guix time-machine -q --commit=1e6d1c3 \
       -- shell gcc-toolchain <at> 11 gfortran-toolchain \
       -- g++ --version
g++ (GCC) 11.4.0

Well, the naive question: Does it make sense to have in the same profile
some C/C++ GCC toolchain at one version and some Fortran GCC toolchain
at another version?

Depending on the answer, I guess the fix is not the same. :-)

Cheers,
simon
