Hi Volker,

I am following the instructions at the wiki page you listed above and
used hg(1) to download.  Their example is for Visual Studio Generator. 
I am wading through MinGW vs. MSYS for generator.  MinGW complains the
sh.exe is in my path and MSYS errors out with a cpack.d error.  Though I
suspect I want the MinGW.

I did get the Coin3D going on MacOS, and Quarter (though
Quarter.framework installed kind of funny, so working through that also).

Thanks,
Chris
