This pull request aims to resolve issue #33534 where a left over patch from 2015 caused projects that use libsigc++ via pkg-config to be built according to C++11.

Motivation for this change

This pull requests removed a patch from the derivation for libsigc++-2.0 that is no longer needed and may have unexpected effects when using libsigc++ in a project via pkg-config.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option build-use-sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nox --run "nox-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

This commit removes a patch from the derivation for libsigc++-2.0 that
appended -std=c++11 to the pkg-config file.

The patch in question orginated from the Debian project to enforce
-std=c++11 in projects using libsigc++-2.0 via pkg-config. This patch
was removed in 2016 when Debian switched to GCC 6.

This fixes #33534.
