Yes, I should probably also have posted the extensions I used in pCP.
You can install them as additional modules through the web interface.

I think what you need is:

    
- the compiler and development libraries. That's the module
  "compiletc.tcz"
- wiringPi
- probably libCurl (not 100% sure whether that's included in
  "compile.tcz"
- git (if that's not included in "compile.tcz")
  

The you can download the whole project via "git clone
https://github.com/coolio107/SqueezeButtonPi-Daemon.git"; to some folder
you create.
Then go to the main folder (typically "SqueezeButtonPi-Daemon") and just
do a "make".

Important: this needs to be in one of the folders being backed up, e.g.
you user folder or you also need to change the list of folders being
backed up by pCP. The pCP documentation has details.
You need to do a backup (again: through the web interface) after you
have downloaded and compiled sbpd otherwise it gets deleted on the next
powerdown.

This gives you a file called "sbpd" which you can add to the startup
commands in pCP, they also guarantee it's being run as "root" which
wiringPi requires, at least in pCP 3.0 (newer versions might have that
requirement dropped).
