Description

This is a poor naming issue that wasn't a problem before.

In qpid/messaging/amqp/AddressHelper.cpp there are a number of anonymous functions called bind() which take std::string as one of their argument types. Additionally the include chain indirectly includes <functional>.

Because of C++ argument dependent lookup the compiler is finding/using std::bind in preference to the locally declared bind. This is only an issue when compiling with C++11/14 because std::bind did not exist before.

This issue might have gone undetected except that the compiler noted that one of the overloads of the local bind() was unused.

A most pernicious problem and hard to detect.
