yes, i think we all agree here.
(i was just saying that i would like to not link against a precompiled 
glew-version but rather provide glew with gem (like the particle- and 
fiducialtracking-library))

and once we are there, we might be able to make the code for 
[pix_texture] readable, although it might still be a complicated (right 
now it is way beyond catastrophic).
