the priorities are, i think:
  * multi-platform build support: GNU autoconf on unix? something else
    on windows?
  * multi-platform optimization (fbuild)

hmmm, i've not really given any thought to maintaining binary
compatability between releases. the ODE API exports a number of
structures whose layout could be changed. when we hit the 1.0
(whenever that might be) we can start to maintian binary compatability.
