Well, one way to get rid of the error would be to use giomm instead of
gnome-vfsmm.  gnome-vfs is deprecated and shouldn't really be used for
new code.  giomm is much nicer.  As for the warning, I'm not sure.  It
seems slightly strange that an anonymous namespace is used there, I'm
not entirely sure why it's done that way.
