Compiling

To build Palomino flight simulator:

UNIX: cmake . && make
FreeBSD: cd /usr/ports/games/palomino; make install

Problems compiling:

Palomino's cmake files expect OSG to be installed without any build-type suffix.

/usr/local/lib/OpenThreads.so    will compile
/usr/local/lib/OpenThreadsd.so   won't compile (has Debug suffix)
