Libreoffice (>= 6.1.5.2) fails to compile with error:

  ISO C++17 does not allow dynamic exception specifications 

when using gcc 8.2 (that enables -std=gnu++17) due to http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2016/p0003r5.html


> As workaround, I've simply set -std=c++14 in CHOSTS, CPPHOSTS, CXXHOSTS

As a workaround, search in bugzilla for existing bugs. ;)
