i found out that it's only libcgal (and not a bunch of other libraries too) that's required, built it myself. after bending all the build depends from libboostX-dev to libboostX1.53-dev both in cgal and openscad, and with the custom built cgal installed, everything compiled flawlessly. there is code that would touch the -mt part, but when the libraries present are recent enough not to have -mt files, the regular ones are used. could you report what went wrong when you tried to rebuild openscad in more detail? thanks chrysn -- Often I must speak other then I think.
