Hugin is built for a lot of distributions, operating systems and processor 
types. So any libraries that are not already available in Linux/bsd 
distributions, or are difficult to introduce would be problematic(*); as is 
anything that depends on proprietary nvidia CUDA drivers, for example; or 
anything that involves ASM CPU specific code.

* For a long time, Hugin contained a bundled modified version of the vigra 
library, this required policy exemptions from Linux distributions and was a 
huge pain.
