Dear Marc,
Thanks for the prompt reply. I am not an expert here, so I probably
don't know the correct solution for gcc. We are using std=c++11 to
maximise source compatibility for any users seeking to recompile our
code on whatever compiler/toolchain they have.
As to your suggestions for possible fixes, my thoughts are as follows:

I am unsure if such extensions might cause problems elsewhere due to
preprocessor substitution. This would be my concern here.

This seems totally reasonable, but as an end-user , I am not certain if
this can be achieved within the specifications. It sounds good though.
Thanks!
