The fgfs one, but I don't think that's a particularly onerous requirement to 
build fgcom. I can't imagine there's a large use case of people who really want 
to build fgcom standalone, but haven't already built fgfs from source.

I do absolutely agree there are reasons to keep a separate /binary/, to run on 
a separate machines or similar, as an option (as we do for terrasync), but 
again for a large number of users the easiest solution would be an 'in process' 
one in terms of setup, configuration - and the easiest way to achieve that is 
to make the (tiny) amount of fgcom code live in the fgfs source tree.

Anyway, it's only an idea, and not one I have time to work on in the short term 
:)
