Hi Stefan,

I finally got around to building 1.4 RC1 (on Windows 7 x64, as always ;) )
from buildyard-1.3.6.

Some remarks/wishes regarding the build process:

CMake complains about some missing dependencies (pkg-config, hwloc, NVCtrl).
I got pkg-config by installing GTK+ (though I don't think it was really
required?). Judging from the .cmake files, hwloc and NVCtrl are not
supported/used on Windows?
Anyway, some hints about this in the readme might be helpful, e.g. "Ignore
warnings about missing hwloc, pkg-config, ...".

The automatic downloading/installing of boost did not work correctly for me:
Boost was downloaded from svn, but the path to boost was not setup
correctly, so the other projects would not find the headers. Also, the boost
binaries were not built, but maybe that's not necessary?
I fixed this by manually building boost and setting the BOOST_ROOT env var.

The build of eqNBody failed with some weird "unresolved external" errors. (I
seem to remember that eqNBody also failed to build for me in earlier
versions - is this supposed to work?) Unfortunately, that also prevented
Equalizer itself from being built. I fixed this by manually setting
EQUALIZER_BUILD_EXAMPLES:BOOL=OFF in
Equalizer-1.4-rc1/Equalizer/CMakeCache.txt. Is there a better way to do
this? Can I disable only the eqNBody example but still build the others? Is
this documented somewhere?!
