You could probably just find/replace unique_ptr. I'm pretty sure that's what I did a million years ago when auto_ptr was deprecated.

C++17 does break some code by removing a few things, but they're pretty trivial and nothing sneaky.

clang-tidy has a command to replace auto_ptr with unique_ptr[0]. I haven't used it in anger, though.
