Strange compile errors

Discussion
21

Slice is important in general. I did not check the tests.

22

Could this error also be related to the other issues we have been discussing, or is this something else?

$ cd python
$ pip install --user -e .

I doubt it as python front end package is independent from cpp package.

24

Is it possible that the error is not in the cpp package, but in libmxnet?

same error here …

I downloaded the latest (commit head: 67b5d314a5a46bce4377668626) and build it with CMake 3.16.3, g++ 7.3.1, same error arose.

26

I changed the CMakeLists.txt (from commit de510582438ad5fad576eba1b) and now the code can be built correctly.
