Debian: cmake
FreeBSD: cmake (according to freshports.org)

Unfortunately not, for the following reasons:
- 'i686-pc-mingw32-pkg-config --libs openscenegraph' lists all base OSG libs,
  but in the wrong order, so that linking fails.
- The plugin library directory (lib/osgPlugins-2.8.2) is not added with -L, and
  no plugin libraries are reported by pkg-config. This is because OSG is
  designed to load dynamic plugins at runtime itself.
