Restoring operability for Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 + fixing typo in NEWS

Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 supports only SOME of the C++11 features.

MSVS2013 was working fine at least with CppUnit 1.12.1 (that was the last version of CppUnit we were using before trying to upgrade CppUnit), but CppUnit 1.15.0 has introduced MSVS2013-incompatible changes.

However, it seems to be trivial to restore operability for MSVS2013 — I've attached patch.

P.S.: Additionally, there was a typo in NEWS, I've fixed it too in the patch.

Hmm, I've discovered that after 1.14.0 it in fact doesn't work reliably with MSVS 2013. So, just recovering ability to build for 1.15.1+ doesn't make sense per se. I'll close this report then.
