I found working with Operation Flashpoint/VBS2/Arma 2 that the code base being so large and so many edge case conditions that it will never re-written. One example from the VBS2/Armed Assault 1/2 they replaced the way arrays references are handled. Previously array's assignment was a copy. They changed it so array's assignments would mirror java's references and only the pointer to the buffer would be copied eg.. copy on write. They had so many idiotic edge case conditions that they reverted back to the old method. So when I say they just need some major backers it would be for new system and applications that would take advantage of the new language. Re-writing most game engines today doesn't have a strong business case. Writing new games/software and shipping faster is more important.
