[Box Backup] compiling on ubuntu breezy

[Mario S. Mommer]

Hello,

I am (trying to) build boxbackup on ubuntu breezy (5.10), but it fails. I
presume the problem is the compiler version. The configure script runs
successfully without warning, but then compilation breaks.

Beyond the report, of course, I wonder how to complete the build and/or
install, so any hint for a workaround would be welcome. Boxbackup rocks!

Ok, so here is the make error.

and so on.

g++ --version

returns
