Hi Rick,

Thanks for putting the build through its paces!

Now it's time for my ignorance to show through a bit :)

Re i18n: My system "Cannot set locale to language Chinese
(Traditional)" but Spanish and French work just fine (somebody did a
good job on those languages, BTW!). Did you get an error or did it
just silently ignore your language choice? Anyway, none of the Asian
languages I tried worked, and I just figured out that wxWidgets was
built without Unicode support, which would make life difficult for non-
latin charsets (I wonder why it defaults to unicode off?). I'll try
creating a new build with unicode support baked in.

Re OoM: I built enblend-enfuse with image cache enabled (well, the
configure script said so, at least... no way to query the binary
afaik). On my machine the cache (in hugin's preferences) defaults to a
piddling 256MB, though, which would probably cause problems for a
workflow as large as yours -- can you try bumping it up to something
more reasonable? (afaik -b only sets the block size of the image
cache, which is probably independent of its size) (How does that cache
size default get set, anyway?)

Re GPU: Unfortunately I don't have a access to a good enough GPU to
even explore this issue, but how general is the problem? It doesn't
seem to affect linux users, but what about the MSVC port of hugin? I
ask because none of my porting effort touched GPU-related stuff; glew
has explicit build-time support for cygming systems (in addition to
cygwin and mingw32), and I used a prebuilt glut32.dll.

Thanks!
Ryan
