Attempt to make vcl::Timer use boost's Signals2

[Chris Sherlock]

Hi all,

I'm attempting to get Timer to use boost's Signals2. When I compile,
however, I get a warning and an error:

The error is:

Does anyone with any knowledge know where I might be going wrong?

You can review the patch at https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/12950/
