./configure is "standard", anything else is sort of non-standard. Which
is why no-one had the same error messages as you.

I configured with --enable-layout, built to basctl, dug into
layout-pre.hxx and see that it defines Window to be ::Window so
the ::Window turns into "::::Window" hence the error message you get.

The whole bodge in layout to redefine things is super-ugly and at at
glance I can't see what *exactly* it want's to do, so I didn't bother
trying to fix it, as I can see its a going to be a big old pain in my
ass to see if we should hack ::Window to be just Window to make the
#define do the right thing, or change #define Window to using ::Window,
etc.
