Maybe ./configure somehow picks up an old g++ from outside the "guix 
shell" environment.

To avoid this, you can do `guix shell --pure -D guix'.

Don't forget to add --localstatedir=/var to ./configure, especially if 
you hack on the daemon -- otherwise if you start the modified daemon 
from your git checkout, the state will go out of sync.

Greetings,
Maxime
