Sigh. I thought so. I am having a dickens of a time getting libpcl to
compile with the --std=c++11 flag. It seems that libvtk, used heavily by
PCL, doesn't like C++11. (We can't compile our library without the flag
since we actually use many C++11 features). I will continue to work on
this.

Thanks, this discussion has at least pointed me in the direction I need to
go.

I have no problem compiling PCL 1.8.0 and VTK 7.0.0 with C++11 support . In the past VTK 6 (not sure on the exact version) and PCL 1.7.2 also worked fine.

The VTK wiki seems to indicate VTK 6.1 is compatible with C++11 [1].

Maybe it is an issue with the compiler you're using. Some GCC versions had incomplete C++11 support iirc.
