Benjamin Mahler commented on MESOS-750:
---------------------------------------

We will need to investigate ABI compatibility here, especially if we move out third party libraries:

> 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.
