This commit changes many aspect of our cmake build system - shared libraries are compiled by default: * this modifies RPATH of unix executables; * this will prevent a lot of linking issues, esp. from pascal world; * the old behaviour (static libs) is still available with -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=off; * of course in this case you have to provide the full list of dependencies with FPFLAGS and CMAKE_C_FLAGS; - pascal is now fully integrated with cmake, meaning you can just do add_sources and use CMAKE_Pascal_FLAGS: * some of the language features are only partially implemented, for example .inc files will not get rebuilt if you modify them; * target_link_libraries for pascal targets is just dummy as linking is determined within pascal files; * universal builds for osx are not available any more; - bundled libraries and system libraries are addressed using the target name: * this avoids depedency tracking; * this allows to name output as we wish.

The git  archive doesn't  contain pre-built configuration  scripts for
UNIXish platforms.  To generate them say

  sh autogen.sh

which in turn depends on the following packages:

  automake (1.10.1)
  libtool (2.2.4)
  autoconf (2.62)

The versions given  in parentheses are known to  work.  Newer versions
should work too, of course.   Note that autogen.sh also sets up proper
file permissions for the `configure' and auxiliary scripts.

The autogen.sh script  now checks the version of  above three packages
whether they match the numbers  above.  Otherwise it will complain and
suggest either upgrading or using  an environment variable to point to
a more recent version of the required tool(s).

Note that  `aclocal' is provided  by the `automake' package  on Linux,
and that `libtoolize' is called `glibtoolize' on Darwin (OS X).


For static builds which  don't use platform specific optimizations, no
configure script is necessary at all; saying

  make setup ansi
  make

should work on all platforms which have GNU make (or makepp).
