        <pre>Resolving WORKSFORME: this error can already be disabled by using
-Wno-c++11-narrowing.

<span class="quote">> In my opinion, this should be a warning, not an error, because it breaks

Such code is not correct C++11 code. Some porting effort should be expected
when trying to build C++98 code as C++11 code -- the new standard is not
entirely backwards-compatible.

That is not how 'narrowing' is defined in the C++11 standard.</pre>
