Quoting the report:
"It compiles successfully on 4.7.0 with -std=c++98".

So, should we add this flag for libcmis?

Hmm, but we bundle boost 1.54. What's the point of using system boost,
but internal libcmis? Wouldn't it make more sense to tweak the tinderbox
to not mix system and internal libraries?

In general, using system libs might incur high amounts of redtape for
LibreOffice:
- using the external lib might incur bugs/regressions that are not encountered
  with the internal version and requires extra testing or bugfixing
- the external lib must be packaged in a recent enough version
- even a packaged version might need additional review and process to be usable
  by LibreOffice, e.g. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MainInclusionProcess

as such, having the option to fall back on a internal copy is highly desirable.

Best,

Bjoern
