Comment (by warner):

 Ruben noticed that this is probably a known bug: cryptopp is on a list of
 Fedora packages known to break against gcc-4.7.0:

  http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2011-December/160723.html

 It looks like the cryptopp header files are relying upon an out-
 of-C++-spec behavior of gcc that was fixed in gcc-4.7.0, and need to be
 updated (the error message suggests the fix). I'll try to make a patch
 that works with our embedded copy, and then we can try to push that
 upstream (if the fedora cryptopp maintainer hasn't already started that
 process).
