Resolution Won't fix
Comment Installing a recent clang or GCC isn't really an issue on OS X (use macports or homebrew).

Description

GCC on OS X only supports std::thread starting with version 4.7, so with the hard dependency on std::thread in dune-common we now require GCC 4.7 on OS X.

I don't think we should fix this, this is mostly just a heads-up and a reminder to everybody about the fact (together with the notice that I can't test my changes on older compilers anymore... :-P ).

We should, however, add this info to the known issues list of 2.4.
