I got similar error message.
And switching to gcc 6 solves my issue.
e.g. in config.mk

#---------------------
# choice of compiler
#--------------------

export CC = gcc-6
export CXX = g++-6
export NVCC = nvcc

[CoinCheung]

@iblis17 Ah, I see, Thanks a lot!!

[zhenglaizhang]

@iblis17 works as expected, thanks!

[Hui-Li]

In case you are using Mac OS, it is probably that you use GCC as the compiler. Change to clang in config.mk:

export CC = clang
export CXX = clang++
export NVCC = nvcc
