I am using instructions here and here to build OpenWrt in Ubuntu, but I am getting:
make[4]: Entering directory '~/openwrt/build_dir/host/cmake-3.11.1/Bootstrap.cmk'
make[4]: 'cmake' is up to date.
make[4]: Leaving directory '~/openwrt/build_dir/host/cmake-3.11.1/Bootstrap.cmk'

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:92 (message):
The C++ compiler does not support C++11 (e.g. std::unique_ptr).
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
There was a solution to a similar problem here. However, it is not clear to me which CMakeLists.txt file is the 'root' in my case. I am not seeing much on the OpenWrt forums (or search engines in general) about this fail.
The impression I get is that the CMake installation is downloaded by the OpenWrt builder itself, as I do not have CMake installed and installing CMake resolved nothing.
Tried checking out latest OpenWrt v18.06.2. When that failed to build I deleted the cloned directory and tried v18.06.0-rc2. There was no improvement.
I also tried
export CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD=11
before running 'make', but it did not resolve the issue.
The state of my g++ install:
g++ -v
Output:

Well, that's five hours, and I'm out of ideas. Could this be a misconfiguration or a bug on the developer end?
If a misconfiguration, what could be set up wrong?
My solution is simply:
I copied the CMake source code to my system drive. If you make CMake on a remote harddrive it will fail and error just like above.
