As I've said before, try to fix the code before lowering the standard
or silencing warnings the build chocks on.  C++17 had deprecated and
removed quite a few things*, but luckily, it's usually not too hard to
patch the code in a correct (both C++11 and C++17) way.  You can "git
log" and search for what other people had done (as you're right, lots
of ports had broken) to learn from.
