What kind of answer do you expect?  You know Apple does not comment on the future.  Both of my C++ refactoring bugs duplicate to rdar://4676447.  So it's been a long time coming...  You could try asking on cfe-dev about the status of C++ refactoring, for sure it will be available in clang svn before it is in Xcode.

Cheers,
