Subject: CMake: Fix test for clang debug compatibility with C++14
X-Git-Tag: v8.4.0-rc2~566^2~1

CMake: Fix test for clang debug compatibility with C++14

Test for a spurios error emitted by clang in case of "deduced return types"
(a C++14 feature) in combination with debug symbols.

Disable C++14 support in this case because we cannot compile bundled boost.
This affects clang-3.5* and older. Fixed in clang-3.6 and newer.

Relates #1390
