That would exmplain why when I changed sword's configure and configure.ac 
scripts to use the c++14 standard it still didn't build. I just changed it to 
c++17 and aside from some warnings (at least one of which seems to be about a 
potential buffer overflow), it compiled, and I was able to build BIBISH.
