Yes, there is a C++ compiler on the Cray.  Actually
it is a C++ to C frontend and a C compiler.  The
site needs a license for both C++ and C.

There is Automatic vectorization in the C compiler.  It
is as good as FORTRAN (same optimizer).  Of course if you
are using pointers then it may not be capable of
disambiguating the pointer references.  It may
conditionally vectorize then or you can insert
directives to let the optimizer know that there
are no dependencies.
