I tried Rene's suggestion of adding:
<target-os>android:<cxxflags>-std=c++0x
to the project requirements. I have pushed that to 'develop' so the next
time you run your tests you will pick it up. If that does not work for
passing '-std=c++0x' then I will ask you to add it manually, but let's
wait to see if that solves the problem temporarily until Rene gets back
and can look at the problem in predef.
