The branch is very old, and so doesn't play well with more recent compilers &c. As a short-term fix, reconfigure with some different CXXFLAGS:

./configure --enable-maintainer-mode CXXFLAGS='-Wno-error -fpermissive -g -O2'

(assuming you're using gcc/g++ this should be fine)

It just stops warnings from acting as errors, and turns off another check which trips up our older code.

If this branch is going to be used, all these issues will have to be fixed and the branch changes brought in line with master. I *believe* it should just be those variable shadowing problems, as the others are in parts of the code that are nothing to do with clustering.
