However, these are on hold until we figure out MESOS-750. We want to have a
clear story for C++11 before making any big changes.

[~dhamon] are you blocked on something here? Did you figure out if we compile
with gcc 4.4? If so, as discussed, let's just restrict ourselves to the gcc 4.4
features and move forward with your patches!

> Requiring C++11 support will provide substantial benefits to Mesos.
> Most notably, the lack of lambda support has resulted in a proliferation of
> continuation style functions scattered throughout the code. Having lambdas
> will allow us to reduce this clutter and simplify the code.
> This will require carefully documenting how to get Mesos compiling on various
> systems to make this transition easy.
