Tim, Thanks, I can build my executable per your instructions and it runs without segfaults, but doesn't seem to get the format plugins yet - the output when I want to get SMILES for example is empty.
I'm also looking at the page "Plugins -> Creating custom static libraries" at http://openbabel.org/wiki/CMake but it's so terse I cannot figure out how to use this information for a project that does not use cmake itself. And I'm not a cmake expert at all unfortunately...
