Ok, I do not know the win32 build too good: But why are you using pthreads on win32? Neither osg nor simgear/flightgear should need this. And at least for osg, how do you manage to make osg use pthreads on win32? Also why do you want to have osg statically linked? It's possible to build and use osg with just static libs. But the default and really best supported configuration of osg is using shared libraries. The basic architecture of model loaders within osg is built around shared objects dynamically loaded at runtime. So as I saied before, it's possible to make osg's reader/writers work with static libs, but we do *not* have any support for that in flightgear/simgear. You would need some scary linker tricks or some code changes to make this work and I am not aware of anything in that corner in flightgear/simgear. Also, if you use static osg libraries, linking with them is probably incomplete within our buildsystem. We assume that once we link against an osg library this dll already pulls in what it requires for itself. This is not the case for static libraries. To me this pretty much explaines that huge amount of hand changes you have to to with cmake. I would suggest not to try linking osg with static libs. Also I would suggest that you do not use pthreads on win32. Then, if you still have to do some of these scary changes to cmake like setting SIMGEAR_VERSION_OK=TRUE, please stop and return to here.
