What distribution are you running? It should be easier for me to try it out and fix if I can install the same distribution.

[guoxiao]

I'm using a CentOS 6.1 with a GCC 4.8.2 from RedHat Dev Toolset 2. I was just now success building lwan in Fedora 22. So I think it may be a platform specific problem.

[fiorix]

Definitely, CentOS 6.1 is quite old.

I'm closing this issue as CentOS 6.1 is from 2011 -- definitely quite old. I unfortunately don't have much resources (or even desire) to support old compilers.

Feel free to reopen the issue (or open a new one) should you find problems building Lwan with a newer distribution.
