Till Toenshoff commented on MESOS-750:
--------------------------------------

During phase 2-4, should we add something that checks for C++11 compiler features availability (for autoconf that could be AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_11([noext], [optional])) for a given "--with-cpp11=yes" or maybe add a third option for --with-cpp11 (yes/no/check) which does that test?

> Requiring C++11 support will provide substantial benefits to Mesos.
> Most notably, the lack of lambda support has resulted in a proliferation of continuation style functions scattered throughout the code. Having lambdas will allow us to reduce this clutter and simplify the code.
> This will require carefully documenting how to get Mesos compiling on various systems to make this transition easy.
