If I go back to using an "OBJECT" library in building ryu, then it
gets bundled right up into libgeos.a where we want it, and your link
line is nice and simple again. That implies a minimum cmake of 3.13,
whcih is 3+ years old now. My macports gives me 3.21 by default. I
dunno, we backed out of the OBJECT library to STATIC to keep the cmake
requirement low, but that implies generating two static libs and
sticking them both on the link line.
I'm inclined to bias towards a newer cmake and still generating one
static
library.
I'm usually in the camp of not wanting to have aggressive dependency
requirements, so having a look and opining.
pkgsrc has 3.21.2 now (and it looks like 3.21.3 just came out).
3.13.0 was released on 2018-11-20. That's almost 5 years ago, and I
therefore
think it's entirely reasonable to require it if it makes anything even a
little bit
better.

FWIW I'm fine with upping the requirement too. I'm running with cmake 3.18
at moment but since I just download it from cmake website, I can easily
upgrade too if needed.
I'm fine also with newer cmake requirement (running 3.21.2 here for MS4W
build environment).
